Developed for equine veterinarians who have experience with lameness investigations, this practical course provides a critical overview of possible causes of hindlimb lameness, diagnostic anesthetic strategies and how to interpret nerve and joint block results, via a regio-anatomic approach. Discussions on the upper hindlimb as a cause of lameness (hip joint, pelvic and sacroiliac problems) and on systemic and intra-articular joint therapies will round the course off. The 7 hours of practical and case-based sessions will give attendees plenty of opportunity to further their practical skills on live horses and limb specimens in small groups (2 – 4 people per ultrasound machine).
