This is one of the most difficult clinical tasks given to candidates in the PACES examination. A lesion is either obvious and the candidate has to perform a limited but relevant examination, or there is no obvious lesion and he/she must go through a series of prescribed clinical steps and reveal the hidden deficit. Both of these aspects are dealt with by expert neurologists.
