Upper Airway Endoscopy
By utilizing a flexible endoscope, veterinarians can visually examine the upper airway structures of horses, including the nasal passages, pharynx, larynx, and trachea. This procedure allows for a detailed evaluation of various conditions such as respiratory infections, throat obstructions, vocal cord dysfunction, and other abnormalities that may affect a horse's breathing and performance. The real-time visualization provided by upper airway endoscopy enables veterinarians to accurately diagnose and develop targeted treatment plans, leading to improved horse welfare and enhanced athletic performance. Whether evaluating racehorses, sport horses, or even companion animals, the invaluable insights gained from upper airway endoscopy contribute significantly to the overall well-being and health of equines.
“Having access to the most cutting edge technologies and tools available, means getting the most definitive diagnosis for the horse. ”
