Neurology

Expertise with the nervous system.

When your pet is limping or walking funny, it could be the first sign of a neurological condition. Neurology relates to the study of the nervous system.

In the veterinary field, some veterinary neurologists study and treat conditions that affect the nervous system, which involves the brain, spinal cord, muscles, and nerves.
