Prof. Simon Platt BVM&S DipACVIM(Neurology) DipECVN FRCVS and Laurent Garosi FRCVS DipECVN EBVS and RCVS have launched a website to help colleagues diagnose and manage neurological diseases in pets.  

The website, web-vetneurology.com, has an open access veterinary neurology literature section with up-to-date research on all aspects of neurological diagnosis and treatment.  

The website also includes a case study section showing video footage and cross-sectional imaging studies of interesting and illustrative cases.

New, common and rare cases of clinical neurology presentations seen in cats and dogs are added every month.

There's also a range of webinars and podcasts.  

The first podcast series - Neurology for Vets and Pets – aims to demystify veterinary neurology in small ‘bite-sized’ episodes, aiming to keep vets up to date on how to diagnose and treat the most common problems in practice and the clinical signs they will see in their cat and dog patients.

The second - Neurology for Specialists - is for vets who have a special interest in neurology, looking at the most challenging neurological problems in dogs and cats, and focusing on the latest publications - often presented by the authors of these studies.

said: “The reason behind this website is purely altruistic. We share a passion for neurology and - like the launch of our earlier Facebook page – we wanted to use this platform to share the fifty-plus combined years of experience we have between us.

“We do hope that we have created a comprehensive source of veterinary education and that it will act as an invaluable veterinary neurology resource for vets around the globe for many years to come.”

The website has been developed and supported by PRN Pharmacal in the United States.
