It features contributions from neurology specialists across Europe and the USA, complemented by stunning full-color illustrations. The manual is organized into three sections. The first section covers essential aspects of neurological diagnosis, including examination techniques, lesion localization, clinical pathology, electrophysiology, neuroradiology, and tissue biopsy. Notably, the neuroradiology chapter highlights the impact of advanced imaging on neurological knowledge, providing in-depth exploration of these techniques alongside descriptions of common radiographic methods used in small animal practice. The second section expands on clinical presentations, adding new chapters to address the surge in information about various diseases. These chapters aim to assist veterinary surgeons in identifying the nervous system areas linked to their patients' clinical signs, guiding them through appropriate diagnostic approaches and potential diseases. Each chapter systematically details clinical presentation, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
