Differential Diagnosis in Neurology Grand Rounds is born out of the authors' more than 25–30 years of clinical practice, bedside teaching, academic discussions, and real-life experiences in managing challenging neurological cases. Since neurology has always been regarded as the art of clinical diagnosis, and long before the investigations confirm a disease, it is the careful history, meticulous examination, and logical clinical reasoning that guide a neurologist toward the diagnosis.
Written in a grand round style, it shares the practical approach the authors have developed over decades while evaluating complex neurological disorders in everyday clinical practice.
The cases presented in the book are inspired by actual clinical encounters that tested the clinicians' knowledge, sharpened their judgment, and, at times, taught valuable lessons through diagnostic errors and near misses.
Designed as a practical guide, the book aims to help readers develop a structured clinical approach to differential diagnosis in neurology. It emphasizes the importance of bedside skills, localization, pattern recognition, and stepwise reasoning in solving difficult neurological problems.
It will be especially useful for neurology and neurosurgery residents, internal medicine trainees, and young clinicians learning the foundations of neurological diagnosis. It will also serve as a valuable companion for practising neurologists and physicians who often encounter difficult diagnostic situations in routine clinical practice.
A premier practical guide for refining the art of clinical neurology — an art that continues to evolve through knowledge, experience, observation, humility, and lifelong learning.
