While much has been written about Parkinson's Disease, there are few books dedicated to atypical Parkinsonian disorders (APD), which were previously known as "Parkinson plus syndromes." Because the progress and diagnoses of patients with Parkinson's Disease and APD differ, distinguishing between the two disorders is critical for both researchers and clinical practitioners, who are the intended audience for this book. Litvan (U. of Louisville School of Medicine) and other contributors address historic aspects, epidemiology, neuropathology, genetics, neuropsychological, neuropsychiatric, ophthalmogic, neurologic, and radiologic diagnostic evaluations and therapeutic approaches. Chapters range from discussions about computer modeling, quality of life assessment, the role of CT and MRI in diagnosis and research, to directions for future research. An accompanying DVD shows exam procedures, tests, differential diagnosis, radiologic and pathologic findings, diverse speech disturbances, and more.
