Electrophysiological Investigation in Brain Diseases

The book "Electrophysiological Investigation in Brain Diseases" by Dan M. Psatta offers a comprehensive analysis of electrophysiological examinations of the central nervous system, particularly in the context of brain diseases. In recent years, the significance of these examination methods has been greatly underestimated in favor of MRI analysis. The work argues that the study of cerebral event potentials and EEG mappings is especially relevant when it comes to small or subtly expressed cerebral lesions, as the brain's function is very sensitive to damage. The author provides laboratory examples to demonstrate that new methods and technological innovations are necessary to enhance the diagnostic relevance of physiological examinations. Additionally, the clinical application of evoked potentials and EEG mappings is documented through over 18,000 cases, making the book a valuable resource for professionals in neurology, psychiatry, ophthalmology, and surgery, as well as for those interested in the humanities.
