NEW EQUINE EXERCISE SCOPE !!! |
|
At GCEC we have recently aquired the latest in upper airway diagnostics - the Equine Exercise Endoscope. This new scope allows examination and observation of the upper airways of the horse whilst it is performing at high speed. This allows us to diagnose upper airway problames such as dorsal displacement of the soft palate and laryngeal hemiplegia (roarer) much more accurately.
It will be especially useful with horses that are making a noise whilst working but nothing can be found on "normal" scoping at rest. The new scope will also be useful in pre-purchase situations for extra peace of mind when purchasing a performance horse. For more information on the scope please click on the link below or contact the clinic.
