The objective of this study was to create an annotated list of textbooks dedicated to teaching the neurologic examination. Monographs focused primarily on the complete neurologic examination published prior to 1960 were reviewed. This analysis was limited to books with the word "examination" in the title, with exceptions for the texts of Robert Wartenberg and Gordon Holmes. Ten manuals met the criteria. Works dedicated primarily to the neurologic examination without a major emphasis on disease description or treatment first appeared in the early 1900s. Georg Monrad-Krohn's "Blue Book of Neurology" ("Blue Bible") was the earliest success. These treatises served the important purpose of educating trainees on proper neurologic examination technique. They could make a reputation and be profitable for the author (Monrad-Krohn), highlight how neurology was practiced at individual institutions (McKendree, Denny-Brown, Holmes, DeJong, Mayo Clinic authors), and honor retiring mentors (Mayo Clinic authors).
本研究的目的是创建一份专门用于讲授神经学检查的教科书注释清单。对1960年以前出版的主要聚焦于完整神经学检查的专著进行了回顾。该分析仅限于标题中带有“检查”一词的书籍，罗伯特·瓦尔滕贝格和戈登·霍姆斯的著作除外。有十本手册符合标准。主要致力于神经学检查而不主要强调疾病描述或治疗的著作最早出现在20世纪初。格奥尔格·蒙拉德 - 克罗恩的《神经学蓝皮书》（“蓝色圣经”）是最早的成功之作。这些专著起到了重要作用，即培训学员掌握正确的神经学检查技术。它们可以为作者（蒙拉德 - 克罗恩）赢得声誉并带来收益，突出各个机构的神经学实践方式（麦肯德里、丹尼 - 布朗、霍姆斯、德容、梅奥诊所的作者），并向即将退休的导师致敬（梅奥诊所的作者）。
