Endoscopy
Endoscopy involves the insertion of a flexible, thin tube with a camera attached, known as an endoscope, into the horse's body. Equine endoscopy is commonly employed to examine the respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, and even the urinary system. By visualizing the internal structures in real-time, veterinarians can detect abnormalities such as airway obstructions, gastric ulcers, or bladder stones. Endoscopy also allows for therapeutic interventions, where veterinarians can remove foreign bodies or administer medication directly to affected areas. In addition to its diagnostic and therapeutic benefits, endoscopy is well-tolerated by horses with minimal discomfort and a faster recovery period.
