Ultimate Review for the Neurology Boards

Back

This is the first book with a web-based review program guaranteed to provide a comprehensive, interactive, and fun self-assessment and review tool for the written Neurology Board Exam. Included here are in-depth sections on Clinical Neurology, Neurophysiology, Pediatric Neurology, Neurologic Subspecialties, Neurosciences, and Neurobehavior and Neuropsychology. In addition, helpful tips on how to prepare for the Boards (both written and oral) are detailed.

Ideally, the book should be used 1 to 3 months before the exam date. It allows for three levels of learning: comprehensive review by reading the book in its entirety, quick review of the major headings and key points, and last-minute review by heading flashcard approach. In addition, the web-based software program allows users to review the entire field of neurology with interactive flashcards and cases, all keyed to sections in the book for further in-depth review as needed.

Key features include:

• Comprehensive review of all disciplines of neurology that residents need to know for the Neurology Boards.
• Expanded outline format and unique heading hierarchy allow for multiple review methods: in-depth review, quick review, and heading flashcard review.
• Over 150 illustrations and tables and dozens of mnemonics and Quick Pearls support the text and help with memory retention.
• Unique interactive electronic web-based self-assessment and review tool is linked to sections in the print book. Almost 200 neurology cases (with color images) and several hundred neurology flashcards help prepare users specifically for the Boards.
• Specific information and tips on how to prepare for the Written Board exam, the Oral Board Exam, and the Recertification exam.
• Inclusion of a comprehensive section on child and adult psychiatry for the neurologist precludes the need for any additional review texts.

Special Features: Interactive web-based self-assessment and review program linked to the book, a special high-yield pediatrics section, chapters on adult and child psychiatry, many memory aids, specifically weighted for the written Boards.
