Neurophysiologische Diagnostik des transkallosalen Systems bei neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen

Weiterbildungsziele

Bei Patienten mit neurodegenerativen Erkrankungen wie Parkinsonsyndromen oder amyotropher Lateralsklerose kann die Untersuchung kallosaler Funktionen mittels transkranieller Magnetstimulation einen wichtigen Beitrag zum pathophysiologischen Verständnis und zur differenzialdiagnostischen Klärung leisten. Die verschiedenen Techniken sowie typische Befunde bei einzelnen Krankheitsentitäten werden beschrieben.
