Neurological Differential Dx
Neurological Differential Diagnosis, 1st Ed. provides mobile healthcare practitioners with the latest in trusted clinical information for more accurate, confident and informed decision-making at point-of-care.
"Neurological Differential Diagnosis: A Prioritized Approach" provides a practical, problem-based differential diagnosis for the entire spectrum of neurological disease.
The unique aspect of this resource is that the differential diagnosis lists are prioritized by listing the most common possibilities first. Furthermore, less common diagnoses that are potentially fatal or disabling in the acute period (diagnoses that "you don't want to miss") are also highlighted. Moreover, each differential also contains characteristics that help distinguish the specific diagnoses.
