Topic:Disease Diagnosis
Disease diagnosis in horses involves the identification and characterization of illnesses through various diagnostic methods and tools. This process is essential for effective veterinary care and management of equine health. Techniques used in diagnosing diseases in horses include clinical examinations, laboratory tests, imaging modalities such as ultrasonography and radiography, and molecular diagnostics. Blood tests are frequently utilized to assess parameters such as complete blood count and biochemical profiles, which can indicate underlying health issues. Additionally, advancements in genetic testing and biomarker identification have enhanced the ability to detect specific diseases early. This page aggregates peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore diagnostic methodologies, their applications, and their impact on equine health management.
Closure of the distal radial epiphysis and its relationship to unsoundness in two year old thoroughbreds. The careers of many Thoroughbred racehorses
are marred or terminated prematurely by unsoundness which develop when racing as two year
olds. Common problems are sore-shins, carpitis,
splints, sesamoiditis, sesamoid fractures and
sprained joints and tendons. There appears to
be no recorded information on the incidence of
these conditions or of overall wastage in two year old Thoroughbreds but the results of personal
observations and communications with practising
veterinarians suggest that the incidence of unsoundnesses and relate these to skeletal maturity
Australia. This is probably d...
