Chairperson: Klaus Viktor Toyka, Würzburg, Germany A formal neurological history taking and bedside examination form the basis of the neurological diagnosis. Only then ancillary tests can be ordered in a logical way. The course provides essential facts about the examination starting with cranial nerves, motor and sensory system including proper reflex testing, and lastly neuropsychology and higher cortical functions. Functional or psychogenic neurological symptoms are one of the commonest reasons for patients to seek help from a neurologist. Basic skills and special examination techniques in functional disorders will be covered that allow neurologists to make a positive confident diagnosis. |
