Cranial Nerves App at Mac App Store analyse

Cranial Nerves App presents problem-based learning cases and clinical testing in a visual format. KEY FEATURES 14 videos demonstrating clinical testing of the cranial nerves Highly illustrated with four-color illustrations and photographs Each nerve modality has been assigned a different color Ability to take written notes Ability to take voice notes Complete text search to quickly find what you are looking for Cranial Nerves targets students of the health sciences (medicine, rehabilitation sciences, dentistry, pharmacy, speech pathology, audiology, nursing, physical and health education, and biomedical communications) who may be studying neuroanatomy and gross anatomy for the first time. The app guides users through pertinent information and full-color functional drawings including color-coded pathways/modalities from the periphery of the body to the brain (sensory input) and from the brain to the periphery (motor output). Each pathway is described according to the direction of the nerve impulse, not according to the embryologic outgrowth of the nerve. Cranial Nerves: Function & Dysfunction separates the nerve fiber modalities, thereby highlighting important clinical aspects of each nerve.
