Blowing in the wind: How accurate is thermography of horses' legs? Mar 27th 2013, 13:25 Since its introduction fifty or so years ago, thermography has been increasingly used by vets to pinpoint the cause of lameness in horses.  The method is fast and safe and is based on a simple idea.  The horse's body surface emits infrared radiation that can be detected by an infrared camera, which is both easy and inexpensive to use.  The camera produces a coloured image that shows the variation in surface temperature across the area investigated.  The temperature is directly related to the presence of blood vessels near the skin, so the method can detect local inflammatory lesions or regions of modified blood flow and thus help localize the origin of lameness.
