When Neurology Meets Internal Medicine: Managing Complex Cases with Multi-System Involvement

Presentation Description / Summary: Join us for an engaging transatlantic collaboration as two veterinary technician specialists share their expertise in managing challenging cases that blur the lines between neurology and internal medicine. Our VTS (Internal Medicine) from the US West Coast and VTS (Neurology) from Scotland will present real-world cases where neurologic and systemic diseases intersect, creating diagnostic and management challenges that require interdisciplinary thinking.

Through interactive case discussions and live Q&A, attendees will explore how metabolic disorders can manifest as neurologic signs, how primary neurologic conditions can cause systemic complications, and how effective communication between specialty services optimizes patient outcomes. This presentation will highlight the critical role veterinary technicians play in recognizing subtle clinical signs, coordinating complex care plans, and ensuring seamless patient transitions between specialty services.

Discover how two different healthcare systems and practice environments approach similar cases, while gaining practical tools for managing multi-system patients in your own practice.
