Riassunto

Questa sezione approfondisce e in parte riprende argomenti già trattati nel volume. Suo scopo è di offrire uno strumento di comprensione degli esami neuropsicologici, così spesso “misteriosi” all’apparenza, ma determinanti in ogni perizia che preveda la valutazione delle funzioni corticali superiori. Si pensi in particolare ai pazienti con demenza e ai traumatizzati cranici, come a tutti i periziandi in cui le lesioni frontali e la perdita di abilità cognitive sono la regola piuttosto che l’eccezione.
