Tendon health is always a top priority in the daily management of sports horses such as horse racing, steeplechase, and eventing. As a large sports animal, horses are prone to tendon strain, strain and even fracture during high-intensity running and jumping training. If not early detection and intervention, not only affect the performance of the game, more likely to cause irreversible damage.

With the development of veterinary diagnosis and treatment technology, portable animal B-ultrasound machine has gradually become an important tool in horse farms, horse hospitals and even horse racing clubs. Through tendon B-ultrasound examination, veterinarians can clearly observe the cross-sectional and longitudinal structure of the tendon of the horse's limbs, determine whether there is inflammation, edema, fiber fracture, etc., so as to formulate a more scientific treatment and recovery plan.

In practice, veterinarians typically use high-frequency linear array probes (such as 5.0MHz or higher) to perform imaging scans of the flexor tendons, shallow flexor tendons, deep flexor tendons, and accessory ligaments in the horse's forelimbs. Through B-ultrasound images, we can see whether the tendon structure is uniform, whether there is abnormal echo or fracture image. This inspection method is not only non-invasive and painless, but also can achieve repeated monitoring and real-time observation, which is undoubtedly a more secure and professional guarantee for equestrian athletes and horse owners.

Take Boxianglai veterinary B-ultrasound machine as an example, its high-definition linear array probe designed for horse tendon scanning, the image is delicate, can clearly show the tendon fiber arrangement and blood flow state. Many horse farms have reported that after the equipment is used with professional veterinarians, it significantly improves the early diagnosis rate of horse leg injuries and avoids the development of minor tendon injuries into chronic diseases.

In our latest short video, technicians demonstrate the process of using ultrasound to scan the tendons of a horse's forelimb. From the image, we can intuitively see the hierarchical distribution of tendons, and even compare whether there are abnormal changes in the left and right limbs.

It can be said that B-ultrasound detection has become a necessary technology for horse sports health management. Whether it is a comprehensive physical examination before a horse race or a follow-up review during post-injury rehabilitation, tendon B-ultrasound provides a reliable basis for scientific decision-making. In the future, with the continuous upgrading of Veterinary ultrasound technology, this technology will play an increasing value in the field of equine industry.

If you are also looking for a professional, clear and easy to operate horse B ultrasound equipment, you may wish to learn about the related products of Boxiang. Really let the equipment "escort" for the health of horses.
