What is a complete neurological exam?
Before a diagnosis can be made, your pet’s neurologist will need to gather some information. The three key aspects of this exam will include:
- A detailed medical history
- A physical examination
- A comprehensive neurological examination
The purpose of the neurological exam is to determine whether your pet has a neurologic disorder and the most likely location of the problem within the nervous system so your neurologist can better determine what the next best diagnostic steps are.
