Neurology on a smartphone: filming fits, faints and falls
BSAVA Congress Proceedings 2025Authors: Mark Lowrie and Laurent GarosiAs the sayings go, ‘a video speak a million words’ and ‘once you’ve seen it once you never forget’! These sayings could not be more appropriate to these sessions run by Mark and I. While finding information of pretty much any neurological conditions can be done on the internet, seeing them on a video and having an expert analysing them with you can be priceless especially when dealing with conditions which are episodic. Often these patients can be totally normal when presented to you and many of the conditions we will cover are functional disorder. When faces with a discrepancy between a pet owner who is clearly worried about what they have witnessed and a pet who does not give any clinical clue on examination, the temptation can be high to (re-)act by running lots of tests which are often prescribed ‘blindly’ hoping to find these clues. Many of the episodic conditions we will cover often do not ‘show up’ on any tests making their diagnosis even more challenging. The take home message is if you are not sure ask for the owner to obtain a video before embarking on any diagnostic procedure especially if the animal is normal on examination.

Regions Now: POCUS (point of care ultrasound)
BSAVA Webinar LibraryAuthor Ana García FernándezDr Ana García Fernández from London Vet Specialists will discuss POCUS (Point of Care Ultrasound). Ana’s passion for diagnostic imaging began when she was a fourth-year undergraduate student. After graduation, Ana obtained a rotating internship at Alfonso X El Sabio University, spending one year in alternating services, before moving to the UK to become a general practice veterinary surgeon. Ana has also been a lecturer for a postgraduate degree course in diagnostic imaging (IFEVET) since 2021.She regularly attends European congresses and has many publications in diagnostic imaging. This POCUS course will show you how to perform emergency ultrasound, dividing the session in two parts where we will talk about T-FAST and A-FAST. This will allow you how to recognise the normal findings and the most common abnormalities on both T-FAST and A-FAST, and you will also learn how to perform an abdominocentesis and a thoracocentesis, being able to diagnose and treat/stabilize your emergency cases. Intended Learning Outcomes To know how to perform an A-FAST and an T-FAST correctly. To identify possible alterations and pathologies.
