Beschreibung: 

Many veterinary practitioners consider neurology to be one of the more difficult specialties, yet it is an area that just requires a logical and systematic approach. The latest edition of this popular Manual has been thoroughly overhauled and updated, while retaining the practical emphasis to aid information retrieval. Part 1 of this Manual describes the increasing availability of additional diagnostic tests such as MRI, which has greatly advanced this discipline but this does not devalue the importance of “the neurological examination”. DVD contained in this new edition features 100 videoclips as the one shown left. This example shows positional strabismus: A dog exhibiting a right-sided positional strabismus suggestive of ipsilateral vestibular disease. As the head is moved a variable positional nystagmus is seen, which has a fast phase to the left when horizontal, compatible with right-sided disease.

Part 2 on neurological presentations provides an excellent reference text covering the diverse signs and symptoms of neurological conditions, including a new chapter on genetic diseases, and will be as well thumbed as the previous edition. Part 3 provides fully up to date coverage of therapeutic options that will be useful for all levels of veterinary surgeons.
