Mayo Clinic Cases in Neuroimmunology delivers a case-based walk-through of demyelinating, autoimmune, and other inflammatory neurologic disorders and their mimics. The authors present cases from their own extensive experience with common and rare neuroimmunologic disorders.

The format of this case-based book was developed to stimulate consideration of the differential diagnoses as the reader reviews the history and examination narratives of each of the 83 cases. Videos, with descriptions, of autoimmune movement disorders supplement the clinical descriptions, where pertinent. In addition, test results from radiology (with comprehensive figures), electrophysiology, and laboratory studies are presented, and treatment and outcome data are also included. Clinical pearls and radiologic clues to assist informed diagnostic decision-making are emphasized. Each case is followed by discussion, including therapeutic guidance, as well as key take-home points.

More than 150 multiple-choice questions with answers are also given to test readers' comprehension and retention. This new addition to the Mayo Clinic Scientific Press series is a comprehensive volume on neuroimmunology that will stimulate and inform those aiming for clinical mastery.
