Summary

The 5-Minute Neurology Consult is a quick, reliable reference guide for neurologic symptoms and disease. Using the famous two-page layout and outline format of The 5-Minute Consult Series, the book provides instant access to clinically-oriented, must-have information on all disorders of the nervous system. Each disease is covered in a consistent, easy-to-follow format: basics (including signs and symptoms), diagnosis, treatment, medications, follow-up, and miscellaneous considerations (including diseases with similar characteristics, pregnancy, synonyms, and ICD coding).
