MRI-based Screening and Syringomyelia in Dutch and Danish CKCS

Apr 30 2024 41 mins  
In this webinar, Drs Citlalli Limpens and Paul Mandigers discuss their study on the effect of MRI screening and selection programs on the prevalence of syringomyelia in Dutch and Danish Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Syringomyelia (SM) is highly heritable indicating that selection to decrease the prevalence of the disorder is possible. A candidate genetic locus associated with syr

Non-intentional Head Tremors in Dogs

Feb 28 2024 31 mins  
In this journal club episode, Dr. Thanis Liatis discusses his study on dogs with non-intentional (episodic) head tremors. These tremors occur mainly at rest, can usually be terminated by distraction, and can have vertical (yes-yes), horizontal (no-no) or rotational directions. This is the sole clinical sign of a movement disorder called idiopathic episodic head tremor in dogs. Seve

How I Manage Disc Associated Wobbler Syndrome (caudal cervical spondylomyelopathy)

Jan 14 2024 45 mins  
In this episode, we interview veterinary neurosurgeon Dr. Cris Falzone, a neurology specialist from Italy, on "How do I manage disc-associated wobbler syndrome (DAWS)?". Disc-associated Wobbler syndrome is the most prevalent and most typical Wobbler syndrome in dogs. It is typically seen in the middle-aged Dobermann Pinscher. Caudal cervical spinal cord compression is cau

What to Know About Chiari-Like Malformation & Syringomyelia

Jan 12 2024 59 mins  
In this webinar, we interview Dr. Clare Rusbridge about Chiari-like malformation and syringomyelia. This is a complex developmental condition of the skull and craniocervical vertebrae, and is characterised by a conformational change and overcrowding of the brain and cervical spinal cord, particularly at the craniospinal junction. Obstruction to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) channels ca

How I Treat Thoracolumbar Myelopathies in Pug Dogs

Jan 04 2024 39 mins  
In this webinar, we interview Dr. Colin Driver (Dipl. ECVN) from Lumbry Park Veterinary Specialists on "How do I treat thoracolumbar myelopathies in Pug dogs". Colin has extensive experience on the subject of both imaging findings and surgical treatment of these complex conditions.

Cannabidiol (CBD) for Canine Epilepsy

Jan 02 2024 47 mins  
In this episode, Dr Lisa Bartner from Colorado State University discusses what is known on the use of cannabidiol for canine epilepsy. The anticonvulsant effect of cannabidiol (CBD), which has been confirmed by findings from animal models and human trials, has attracted the interest of veterinary practitioners and dog owners. We interviewed Dr. Bartner about the potential use of CB

What Do We Need to Know About Paroxysmal Dyskinesia?

Dec 27 2023 36 mins  
In this session, we interview Dr. Mark Lowrie on paroxysmal dyskinesia, a movement disorder seen in both dogs and cats. These can be challenging presentations that can easily be confused with seizures but have some notable differences. Genetic advancements have been made in several breeds and there are some treatment options, all of which will be discussed in this webinar.

Comparing and contrasting FCEM and ANNPE in dogs using MRI

Dec 23 2023 41 mins  
In this session, Dr. Ines Carrera talks about the MR imaging features of two common acute spinal cord diseases in dogs: Fibrocartilaginous embolic myelopathy or FCEM, and acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion or ANNPE. Can we reliably distinguish between the two conditions on MRI and can MRI provide negative prognostic indicators for recovery?

Evaluation of lameness and monoparesis - orthopaedics vs. neurology

Dec 18 2023 44 mins  
In this episode, our guest is Professor John Innes, orthopaedic specialist and Director of Movement Referrals in the UK. John and Laurent answer questions on the clinical approach to forelimb lameness and monoparesis to define where possible what is orthopaedic and what is neurologic, and to review what considerations for underlying causes we should have.
