Description
Oppenheimer's Diagnostic Neurpathology is a guide to neuropathological methods, focusing chiefly on the immediate questions facing the neuropathologist in the post-mortem room: for example, what had caused this patient's epilepsy; why was he so weak; or why, after what seemed to be a successful neurosurgical procedure, did he suddenly die?
Full of practical advice and observations often omitted from standard textbooks of neuropathology, this is ideal reading for general pathologists as well as apprentice neuropathologists.
