Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders (Contemporary Neurology Series)

This resource covers the signs, pathophysiology, genetics (where applicable), and treatment options of each form of hyperkinetic movement disorder. There is a presentation of clinically-focused information regarding the full spectrum of neurological and psychiatric conditions characterised by involuntary movements. This title expands on hyperkinetic movement disorders where substantial progress has been made in the understanding of the role of the basal ganglia in the pathophysiology of these hyperkinesia disorders and in motor control, muscle tone, posture, and cognitive processes.
