Description
Each monthly issue of the Journal of Child Neurology (JCN) embraces interdisciplinary and peer-reviewed clinical and investigative research from a wide-variety of neurological and behaviorial disciplines, including child neurology, pediatric neurosurgery, pediatric neuroradiology, child and adolescent psychiatry, pediatric neuropsychology, developmental and behaviorial pediatrics, pediatric neurosciences, and developmental neurobiology. Articles in JCN cover topics ranging from assessment of new and changing therapies and procedures; diagnosis, evaluation, and management of neurologic, neuropsychiatric, and neurodevelopmental disorders; pathophysiology of central nervous system diseases; and neuroradiologic and imaging evaluation (including CT, MRI, MRS, SPECT, PET and other functional imaging). Epilepsy, stroke, headache, cerebral palsy, genetic and metabolic disorders, autism and learning disabilities in children and adolescents are among the many conditions highlighted in JCN articles. Focusing on the special needs of neurological patients from birth to age 18, JCN offers highly ranked and cited cutting-edge original articles, case reports, brief communications, correspondence and book reviews written by leading international specialists. Each issue highlights the topics you will use in your everyday practice, such as:

- Brain Development
- Cerebral Palsy
- Developmental Malformations
- Epilepsy
- Febrile Seizures
