Thermography for Horses

Performace

If you have ever felt that your horse ‘is just not performing right’  but did not feel that it is serious enough to call your vet out. A thermal scan can identify any issues that may be affecting their performance, before it becomes a full blown injury. Proven research shows that an infrared scan can detect damage in structures such as tendons and ligaments up to three weeks before there is physical lameness.

Indentification of injury site

If your horse becomes lame, a thermal scan can identify the specific region of injury together with any compensation areas that would cause pain. It assists your veterinarian in their diagnosis and is non-invasive, does not require sedation and is affordable.

Rehabilitation

If your horse has suffered an injury, how do you know the best time to bring them back into work? A thermal scan can not only monitor an injury’s progress but can identify if there are still irregularities in their physiology which would determine whether they should recommence their training.

Competetion Monitoring

Horses in regular training and competition are prone to muscoskeletal injuries and strains. By monitoring them we can evaluate how they are coping with the workload and based on these scans it allows you to amend their training to take into account any issues or weaknesses that arise. Thus, maintaining the best possible performance throughout their competition season.

Pre Purchase

Purchasing a new horse can be a stressful time and a thermal scan can identify any issues that the horse may have. This can be undertaken in conjunction with a veterinary purchase report. The benefits being the Thermal Image cameras’ ability to detect anomalies up to 3 weeks before they clinically present themselves.
