DOI: 10.1016/j.jevs.2018.11.007
Abstract: Abstract Anesthetic blocks of hind limbs play a fundamental role in the diagnosis of conditions affecting these sites. However, some restless horses can make this procedure much more difficult. Many clinicians believe that the use… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tvjl.2017.03.009
Abstract: Lameness, thoracolumbosacral pain and reduced range of motion (ROM) often coexist; better understanding of their relationship is needed. The objectives were to determine if thoracolumbosacral movement of horses changes when pain causing lameness is improved… read more here.
