Watch these videos: Ultrasonography Equine distal limb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A series of online instructional videos demonstrating how to perform an ultrasound examination of the equine distal limb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video series aims to provide a solid knowledge of the basic principles and techniques involved in acquiring and interpreting diagnostic quality ultrasonographic images of the equine distal limb, with a particular focus on the soft tissue structures of the palmar metacarpus and plantar metatarsus, and also the palmar and plantar pastern region.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special thanks to Filham Park Vets for the use of their facilities for the filming of these videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PLEASE NOTE: Performing any procedure or examination on a horse is potentially dangerous, particularly when dealing with the hind limbs. For the purpose of filming these videos it was necessary to be able to carry out parts of the ultrasound examination and then provide commentary whilst still positioned near the hind limbs of the horses involved. In practice it is advisable to minimise the time spent in a potentially dangerous position acquiring the images, and to leave reviewing them until you are safely away from the horse. It is also important to be calm, quiet and vigilant at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
