Experience the power of thermal imaging with our specialized diagnostic services, designed to pinpoint potential issues in your horse’s health and performance. Thermal imaging technology allows us to precisely examine key areas such as feet, pasterns, hocks, stifles, and the back, offering invaluable insights without the need for radiation, invasive procedures, or disruption to your horse’s routine in their own barn environment. This non-invasive approach is particularly beneficial for identifying saddle fit issues, locating the source of mystery lameness, assessing hoof health, monitoring healing progress, and detecting early signs of inflammation before they escalate into more serious concerns.
Thermal imaging, or thermography, serves as a crucial tool in both diagnostics and preventive care. By capturing thermal images that reveal variations in surface temperature, we can detect subtle changes indicative of heat, inflammation, or reduced blood flow in the muscular, vascular, skeletal, and nervous systems. This advanced imaging technique is exceptionally sensitive, detecting temperature differences as small as 0.05 degrees centigrade—40 times more precise than the human hand. Whether it’s for pre-purchase exams, hoof balancing, general diagnostics, saddle fitting, or monitoring muscle and nerve injuries, thermal imaging provides essential insights to support optimal health and performance for your horse.
