Publisher's Synopsis
Keep your ophthalmic knowledge current with the Academy's 2013-2014 Basic and Clinical Science Course (BCSC). BCSC is the most extensive compilation of ophthalmic scientific research and clinical experience, and it is continually updated by a faculty of more than 80 expert ophthalmologists.
Each of the 13 sections includes up-to-date clinical knowledge, concise information and tables, self-assessment questions and answers, photos and illustrations.
Section 5: Neuro-Ophthalmology provides a symptom-driven approach to the diagnosis and treatment of major neuro-ophthalmic conditions. With the focus on the patient, this book emphasises examination and appropriate adjunctive studies, including a discussion of diagnostic imaging modalities, and leads the reader through the sometimes subtle manifestations of neuro-ophthalmic disease to anatomical localisation of lesions and definitive diagnosis. An overview of the anatomy of visual pathways is accompanied by many illustrations. Section 5 has been completely revised for the 2013-2014 edition.
