Course Description:
Equine Lameness evaluation is changing rapidly with objective lameness equipment becoming available for purchase and becoming increasingly well validated. Advanced imaging techniques are now more widely used and better understood. So where does all of this fit in for the first opinion and advanced practitioner? How are these technologies best applied in practice? What can we learn from these machines? Are there any limitations to their use?

This North East Regional Meeting aims to answer all of these questions, bringing us up to speed with the lameness workup for the 21st century.
