Radiology

X-rays are an essential part of equine veterinary practice. All of our vets are passionate about producing high-quality x-rays. Although x-rays are mostly used for lameness diagnosis and sports medicine, we also take a lot of head and dental x-rays.

At Stable Close Equine Practice we have two XDR x‑ray systems, which provide us some of the highest quality images available.

  • Carpal Arthritis

  • Dental X-Ray

  • Foot Balance

Mobile X-Rays

We can bring our mobile x-ray systems to your yard rather than you bringing the horse to us. All we need is an area of flat, clean floor under cover and a reliable power source. 

The quality of mobile radiology is now such that we can produce perfect images without needing to transport your horse to a hospital.

We frequently work with farriers taking x-rays for foot balance and remedial farriery.

We also work with other vets such as dental and orthopaedic specialists in order to obtain the very best diagnosis and treatment plan.
