Article Synopsis
  • * A study analyzing 341 MRI reports revealed that irregularities in bone structures were common, with distinct patterns of injuries seen in the forelimbs versus hindlimbs, likely due to different loading patterns.
  • * The study found significant differences in injury types related to sports disciplines, with race and endurance horses more prone to bone issues, while dressage and show-jumping horses showed more soft tissue injuries, especially in specific ligaments.

Standing magnetic resonance (MR) images of proximal metacarpal/metatarsal regions are increasingly being acquired. This study aimed at describing ranges of abnormalities detected in sport/racehorses, using retrospective evaluation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reports from horses with lameness isolated to proximal metacarpal/metatarsal regions with images acquired standing. It was hypothesized that MRI features are different between metacarpal and metatarsal regions and between horses doing different sports.
