Manuale di Neuroftalmologia

496 pages with illustrations and numerous tables.

Neuro-ophthalmology is a rapidly expanding clinical discipline that sits within ophthalmology while maintaining close links with neurology. This manual offers a concise and practical overview of key neuro-ophthalmic problems, focusing on quick consultation and diagnostic interpretation. Even though CT, MRI and digital subtraction angiography have streamlined many diagnostic and prognostic decisions, complex clinical scenarios still require deeper expertise. The book covers disorders affecting the visual sensory pathways, the autonomic nervous system and the oculomotor apparatus, includes chapters on headaches and intracranial space-occupying processes, and concludes with an appendix on the most frequent signs and syndromes relevant to daily specialist practice.
