Equine Infrared

23 January 2012

Before Equine Thermography, veterinarians could only locate a problem with observation or palpation but with equine thermography, an
abnormality can show tissue that’s stressed before the affected tissue becomes damaged. Since animals cannot speak, it has been difficult for caretakers to truly identify hidden or masked conditions. Now with infrared thermal imaging, many of these
physiological and anatomical issues are exposed at a much earlier stage. Early detection = early prevention.

• PRE-PURCHASE IMAGING
• HOOF BALANCE IMAGING
• TRACK FOOTING IMAGING
• PRE-RACE IMAGING
• SADDLE FIT IMAGING
• JOINT INFLAMMATION IMAGING

Anatomical imaging, such as x-ray, lacks specificity and fails in the ability to see soft tissue conditions. Physiological imaging, such as infrared imaging has the ability to not only see tissue conditions but can also recognize areas that are indicative to anatomical issues.
