内容説明

Although a working knowledge of neuroanatomy is necessary for clinicians, learning neuroanatomy in in-depth is rarely an achievable goal of any veterinarian in practice. "A Practical Guide to Canine and Feline Neurology" provides the tools necessary to understand and be clinically proficient with the neurology cases faced in small animal practice. The book is arranged in a logical sequence based on the order of brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous systems. Opening chapters provide a review of pertinent neuroanatomy, a step-by-step guide to neurologic examination, and a brief overview of available neurodiagnostic tests. Once a neuroanatomic diagnosis is made, readers can consult the appropriate subsequent chapter for specific information required for their clinical case. Disease descriptions are succinct, designed for the busy practitioner, but extensive references are provided for further reading as desired. There are numerous illustrations, figures and tables. "A Practical Guide to Canine and Feline Neurology" is an excellent reference source for general small animal practitioners, veterinary students, residents, specialists and anyone needing a refresher course on neurology before taking specialty board or state board examinations.
