Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine Board Review

The only review book currently available in this complex field, Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine Board Review is an all-in-one, must-have resource for preparing for the neuromuscular and electrodiagnostic medicine, neurology, clinical neurophysiology and physical medicine and rehabilitation board exams. Focused, high-yield content is provided in a concise, readable manner without exhaustive or unnecessary detail, helping you make the most of your study time and efficiently prepare for exams and clinical practice.

• Questions and answers are written in board-stylesss formats, including case scenarios, high-yield facts, and questions on waveforms, pathology, and ultrasound images.  

• Content covers all topics from the board exams, including genetics, clinical trials, and newly FDA-approved medications. 

• Explanations are provided for both correct and incorrect answers and include numerous supporting tables, diagrams, and images, in addition to specially highlighted content such as high-yield facts, mnemonics, and key points.  

• An ideal study resource for the ABPN and ABEM/AANEM neuromuscular electrodiagnostic medicine and clinical neurophysiology boards, as well as for physical medicine and rehabilitation boards and MOC exams, and during neuromuscular/EMG rotation and training. 

• Interactive quiz functionality is available online. 

• An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
