Thematik

The aim of the period is to synthetize the previously obtained knowledge. Students have to perform the neurological physical examinations individually and they have to evaluate the neurological findings. Based on the history taking and physical signs, they need to plan further studies examinations to stand up the diagnoses. Finally, students need to indicate therapy for the examined patients.
