There's alot of ways to diagnose lameness in a horse. It all has to start with a thorough lameness exam at your vet's. THEN it may progress to one of several machines used to diagnose the specific source of the lameness. All of the tools can be found here, in Arizona, at several Equine Hospitals.

I came across an article that walks you through each of the machines in use today and explains in plain language what they do and how they can help in the diagnosis of your horse's lameness.

Dr Dave Ramey is a Veterinarian in the Los Angeles area, and author of more than a dozen books, as well as a well known lecturer. He is also the former vet of one of my current clients.
