Re: [RC] Flouroscopic Examination - Ed and Wendy HauserMy vet would go that route. I normally bring my horses into the clinic. The work up goes like this: 1. Take history. When how long symptoms etc. 2. Trot the horse straight and in circles. 3. Do a flexion test. 4. think and discuss. 5. Do nerve blocks. This allows localization of area of pain. 6. Do ultrasound if soft tissue is suspected 7. Do X-rays as indicated by the nerve blocks. 8. Decide on course of treatment. Even when a partial diagnosis is available from another vet (say at a ride) they want to follow the protocaul. This systematic approach makes sure nothing is missed.
