DPT 624 - Clinical Neuropathology for PT

3 credit(s)
A systematic approach is used to review neurologic pathology, e.g., disorders of the peripheral nerves, sensory system, upper motor neuron lesions, and vascular system. The study of functional neuroanatomy is reinforced through descriptions of pathophysiology and the concurrent clinical signs and symptoms. Disease etiology, pathophysiology, progression, and clinical prognosis are reviewed, and clinical examination techniques and technologies are introduced. Advances in neuroscience in the area of neuroplasticity and neuroregeneration are reviewed, with clinical application to rehabilitation practice.
