Description
This authoritative reference is the only text available devoted exclusively to the neurophysiology of children. It includes comprehensive information on electroencephalography (EEG), electromyography (EMG), nerve conduction studies (NCS), and evoked potentials (EP). Written by a stellar group of recognized authorities, this text is essential for pediatric neurologists and general neurologists who perform and interpret neurophysiologic tests on children.
