Louisburg Equine X-rays (Radiology)
Equine radiology is most frequently used in the diagnosis of lameness in horses. Lameness is the most common cause for change in a horses gait and occurs when a horse is either unwilling or unable to stand or move normally. We also use radiology to help new potential owners determine if a horse will be a good fit for them during a pre-purchase exam.
Here at Town & Country, we use digital radiology, which provides several benefits for you and your horse. The images are produced in a matter of seconds, which means less waiting time. Images can also be easily enhanced, enlarged, and emailed or digitally copied, if necessary for referrals.
Equine Ultrasound![](https://townandcountryequinehospital.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/IMG-8068-239x300.jpg)
Ultrasound in horses is most commonly used in reproductive work. To a lesser extent, it is used to examine soft tissue, primarily tendons and ligaments.
If you would like to schedule radiographs or an ultrasound for your horse at Town & Country Equine & Pet Hospital, give us a call to schedule an appointment.
