Chapter 26 - Part A The 90-Second Neuro Exam Stop Guessing, Start Localizing

In this BoardsCast episode, we take the mystery out of neuro exams and replace it with clarity, confidence, and an efficient plan. Using Chapter 26 from Tobias & Johnston’s Veterinary Surgery (2nd ed) as our framework, this is your crash course in rapid neurologic evaluation and spinal cord localization — designed for surgeons, not neurologists.

You’ll learn:

• How to perform a focused neuro exam in under two minutes
• What tests actually help with lesion localization (and which waste your time)
• Stepwise interpretation of posture, gait, proprioception, and reflexes
• The 5 spinal cord segments and how to map clinical signs to them
• When a brain lesion is (or isn’t) on your surgical differential
• What board questions expect you to say when faced with neuro deficits

If neuro feels like a black box, this episode lights it up — and gives you a roadmap from signs to spine.
