I am not sure that anyone uses thermography here in Bozeman. The first
person I would ask is Gary Cook. He is here. I use Dr. Clarke as you
probably can tell from the last note I sent you. The technology has
been around for awhile. There was an article in Equus on it several
years ago.
What I like about it is that you can detect a problem BEFORE a lameness
shows and prevent significant damage to the horse because of the
sensitivity in temperature variation as Tom Ivers says. I swear by it
if there is a leg problem and I am competing that horse. I would love
for you to stay in touch to see what you do with it....I am imagining
that you have some research in mind.
