• European College Of Veterinary Neurology
  The European College of Veterinary Neurology (ECVN) functions to advance veterinary neurology in Europe by authenticating veterinarians as specialists in veterinary neurology and by furthering knowledge relating to the pathogenesis, diagnosis, therapy and the control of diseases affecting the nervous system of animals. Diplomates are recognised as specialists by the European Board of Veterinary Specialisation and the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons.
• European Society Of Veterinary Neurology
  The European Society of Veterinary Neurology (ESVN) was founded in 1987 and serves as a forum for persons interested in all aspects of the nervous system of animals, promotes training programs in veterinary neurology, provides an opportunity for collaborative clinical research throughout Europe.

• Neuromuscular Case Presentations
  Comparative Neuromuscular Laboratory, University of California - San Diego, Case Presentation. In addition to specific case presentations (many of which have video clips, muscle biopsy specimens, EMGs, and other advanced diagnostics), monthly topics include muscle biopsy techniques and anesthetic considerations of patients with myopathies. Site contains information about hereditary neuromuscular diseases, plus additional links and email addresses for research being conducted.
• Neuromuscular Diagnostic Laboratory

• Spike's disease or Canine Epileptoid Cramping Syndrome
  This site describes the ill-defined syndrome of muscle spasms noted in Border Terriers. Photographs and video of affected dogs, diagnostics and diet and treatment suggestions are listed.
• The Glasgow Coma Scale
  A 2001 study http://www.vin.com/Members/SearchDB/Journals/Scanned/JA020000/JA017751.htm found that the modified Glasgow Coma Scale is a useful index for prediction of outcome in dogs with head trauma. The clinician simply assigns a numerical value for the patient in three categories (motor activity, brain stem reflexes, and level of consciousness) to obtain a total score which is prognostic in over 50 percent of cases.
• Veterinary Neurology And Neurosurgery
  This site is intended to be an international on-line medium for rapid publication of high-quality peer-reviewed clinical and research information, continuing education, news, etc. The site has a monthly case quiz, videos of various neurological conditions, and peer-reviewed papers.
• Veterinary Ophthalmology website
  The home page of University of California Veterinary Ophthalmology Service contains comparative anatomy notes and photographs of ocular pathology, as well as clinically observed normal and abnormal ocular conditions. Good self-testing section using excellent fundic photos. The interesting Eye Simulation section is an interactive section simulating ocular movement and pupillary responses to light.
• White Cats, Eye Color, And Deafness
