18 Οκτ 2021 · The tremendous weight-bearing forces transmitted through the 4 digits of the horse are accommodated within physiologic norms because of the highly refined and specialized gross, microscopic, and functional anatomy of the equine foot. This article provides an overview of foot anatomy and physiology.
This article traces the characteristics, origin, distribution, and function of alternative lateral horse gaits, i.e., intermediate speed lateral-sequence gaits.
4. Tendons and Ligaments: Discussion of the crucial connective tissues and their vital functions. 5. Common Injuries and Ailments: Overview of frequent problems like bowed tendons, suspensory ligament injuries, and fractures. 6.

18 Ιουν 2016 · Functional characteristics of tendon. Tendon and ligaments transmit forces to move the equine skeleton, or for support of the distal limb in the case of the digital flexor tendons, or, as ligaments, to maintain joint integrity. At heel strike, the loads rise the quickest in the soft tissue structures primarily supporting the metacarpo ...
8 Ιουλ 2016 · Tendons and ligaments. Horses can attain high speeds largely because specific tendons and ligaments store and return elastic strain energy as the foot is set down and then lifted. This, effectively, halves muscular work during galloping.
5 Ιαν 2021 · The tendons and ligaments act as support structures for the bones, as there are no muscles in the digit. “The navicular bone allows the deep digital flexor tendon to maintain a constant angle where it inserts on the distal phalanx,” Dr. O’Grady points out.
5 Οκτ 2022 · The aim of this module is to show the normal anatomy of the horse’s distal limb (hoof, foot and pastern) on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). This labeled cross-sectional atlas of equine foot anatomy provides: Basic anatomical data and reference images for interpreting diagnostic imaging of the lameness horse.
