Epilepsy: Diagnosis and Neurotransmitters
Dr. Hardeep Singh Malhotra MD, DM, FIACM, MNAMS, an Associate Professor at King George's Medical University, presents a series of Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) focusing on the diagnosis of epilepsy, excitatory neurotransmitters, and genetic abnormalities associated with various types of epilepsy syndromes. Explore the link between seizures and familial history, as well as the role of sodium, calcium, potassium, and chloride channel mutations in different types of epilepsy. Enhance your knowledge on epilepsy through these insightful questions.
