    The COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to pause and reevaluate how we operate specifically in medicine, shifting to telemedicine and telehealth. Integrating telemedicine and telehealth into the healthcare system enables patient safety and has been proven beneficial to medical and surgical practices including patient primary care. Telehealth in Movement Disorder: Principles, Strategies, Applications, and New Directions provides guidance on how to deliver clinical assessment and treatment to movements disorders patients through telemedicine. This book is divided into three distinct sections. The first section reviews general principles including strategies, standards, policies, and ethical aspects. The second section explores how telemedicine can be integrated into diagnosis, treatment, and care of patients with movement disorders including the use of new AI technologies. The final section discusses the integration and application of telemedicine in developing countries, including challenges and future opportunities.
