Welcome to THE EQUINE CENTRE
The Equine Centre is made up of world specialists in lameness and diagnostic imaging, oncology and dermatology. These services offer second opinions on cases, as well as providing a direct referral service, for example for diagnostic imaging, alone.
We have one of the most advanced imaging facilities in the country, being one of the only institutes in Europe to offer both low field, and high field MRI. Alongside current and previous ground breaking research into diagnostic imaging, orthopaedics and poor performance investigation, this allows for accurate diagnosis and prognosis and instils confidence in both referring vets and owners alike. In oncology, we have recently introduced High Dose Radiation (HDR) therapy for treatment of multiple different tumour types in horses in our new Cancer Centre. HDR therapy represents an advance in brachytherapy and utilises a contained iridium source in conjunction with prior imaging and software planning to provide an optimised course of radiation treatment for a given tumour type. Our dermatology team offers investigation and diagnosis of all aspects of skin disease in the horse, including intradermal skin testing for pruritic allergic patients.
