Neurological disease is a common problem encountered in equine practice and the ability to perform a neurological examination is an essential skill that all veterinarians involved in equine practice should learn?
This webinar will provide veterinarians from mixed or equine practice with the practical skills to determine if a neurological abnormality exists and the knowledge and onfidence to interpret their findings in order to localise the lesion to a specific anatomic region of the nervous system.
The key areas that will be covered by the lecture include the procedure and sequence for the neurological examination, followed by interpretation of the findings in order to localise the lesion/s to a specific anatomical region of the nervous system. Videos will be used to demonstrate the various neurological syndromes that may be encountered in practice; and practitioners will have an opportunity to practice localising the lesion on a wide variety of different cases.
