Eventing Magazine - Tendon Injuires & Tendon Health

Our Senior Thermographer, Helen Morrell, featured in Eventing Magazine for a Question & Answer session on how thermal imaging can help to keep your horse's legs in optimum condition.  As well as offering advice on how to reduce the risk of tendon injuries, you can learn why tendon injuries don't heal well, how to protect your horse's legs and why it's important to keep your horse's legs cool during gallop work.

Equine Thermography has been shown to detect tendon injuries in your horse up to three weeks before clinical signs.  More information about how Equine Thermography can improve the health of your horse's tendons can be found on our Ligament Injury page.

Graphic Illustration of a Tendon Injury (Lesion)





A dramatic illustration of how effective Equine Thermography can be.  This Irish Sports Horse showed no clinical signs of a tendon injury, but the owner and vet both knew he wasn't quite right. Thermal Imaging pinpointed the seat of the problem, whilst the tissues were just under a state of stress before a lesion appeared. The prognosis from early treatment is always much better.
