Popis: Most systemic illnesses, neuromuscular diseases, dementing illnesses, movement disorders, and sleep disorders affect the nervous system diffusely. Still, even these diffuse conditions possess some pattern and symmetry. The particular pattern of involvement is generally the basis for making a diagnosis. Unlike focal lesions and diffuse processes, multifocal conditions are characterized primarily by the lack of a consistent pattern.
