We watch for symmetry comparing side to
side right leg to left leg etc. We consider greater than 2° F
difference as usually significant. It is important to know anatomy
and circulation patterns for areas.
At times, areas such as tendons may begin
showing heat or inflammation up to 2 weeks prior to developing a
lameness. With thermal imaging, changes in circulation may be noted even
before lesions can be confirmed by ultrasound. |
