Orthopaedics

A healthy locomotive system is of vital importance for the horse and its use. A major part of our daily work focuses on diagnosis and treatment of lameness, back problems, rideability issues, joint disorders and limb deformities.

For clinical examination, a roofed trot-up, a lunging area with hard ground and an indoor lunging area are available. For further diagnostics, we have imaging techniques such as digital radiography (Agfa imaging plate system), ultrasonography, computed tomography (Siemens Somatom) and gamma scintigraphy at our disposal.
