Neurological Malingering - 9781498742467

Physicians have little training in examining the credibility of a patient's medical presentation directly and are confronted with the possibility of malingering. This books serves as a guide for health practitioners and clinicians to diagnose neurological malingering cases. It covers history, physical exams, types of pain conditions; and electrophysiologic, pyschiatric, and chemosensory information as they relate to malingering. The book emphasizes neurological malingering in several diseases and conditions including aphasia, dementia, epilepsy, Munchausen syndrome, multiple sclerosis, blindness, and deafness.
