With the help of the latest advancements in objective movement analysis systems and new methods in identifying pain behaviours, we wish to better understand the connection between irregular movement

We teach a number of different student groups as well as different professional target groups and the general public. Teaching at SLU At SLU, our team mainly teaches veterinary students. The students

Lungeing is often part of the clinical lameness examination. The difference in movement symmetry, which is a commonly employed lameness measure, has, however, not been quantified between surfaces.

Phenomena such as a gradually sliding saddle onto one side during riding has been observed in lameness investigations and may possibly be linked to the hind limb lameness in the horse. However, it is

Recent studies evaluating horses in training and considered free from lameness by their owners have identified a large proportion of horses with motion asymmetries. However the prevalence, type and

Gait analysis in horses has moved from the laboratory into the outside world enabling researchers and clinicians to make use of quantitative measurements to provide evidence aiding clinical decision

Horses show compensatory head movement in hindlimb lameness and compensatory pelvis movement in forelimb lameness but little is known about the relationship of withers movement symmetry with head and

How the rider influences the horse's movements is important during lameness evaluations that involve riding tests, as well as for riders who want to discover possible lameness in their horse at an

Objective motion analysis using sensor or camera-based systems is becoming increasingly common as an aid in investigating the lameness of a horse. According to the current standard, the head movement
