- Book[edited by] Francis O. Walker, Michael S. Cartwright.Summary: This book use of ultrasound as an alternative to electrodiagnosis in the evaluation of neuromuscular disorders through detailed descriptions and clear illustrations. Drs. Francis Walker and Michael S. Cartwright discuss techniques for visualizing muscles and nerves without painful testing for better patient compliance and more efficient diagnosis. This book covers the use of ultrasound as an alternative to electrodiagnosis for the evaluation of neuromuscular disorders-using illustrations to compare and contrast the two techniques. It provides lucid descriptions of how the clinical and electrodiagnostic examinations can be refined, improved, and enhanced to minimize patient discomfort and to maximize the optimal patient evaluation.

Walker.Digital Access ScienceDirect 2011 - ArticleStoll W.Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg). 1978 Sep;57(9):818-23.A new diagram with audiogram-like presentation of the vestibular reaction to caloric stimulation is proposed, which facilitates the identification of typical vestibular disorders. Spontaneous nystagmus with the relevant parameters is entered in the chart. The diagram can be used for any parameter of the reaction, such as frequency, slow phase velocity or total amplitude in a defined period of time, e.g. 30 sec of maximal reaction.
