Thermal imaging 13-04-13

photo of left fore today after farrier had run rasp round the edge to smooth off the areas becoming chipped.  I dont like this foot much at the moment - there's a big ridge 1/4 of the way down there's the dip just below the coronary band I dug out yesterday as it was all separating, there's lots of growth lines and even though the toe isn't especially long, the heel is collapsed and the HPA broken-back. Still feels hot and still has pulse.

red spot is the high nail hole I've been concerned about.  red is inflam surrounding it.



left fore sole - bit more inflam in the heel but not loads.  shows inflam is actually further up the hoof than this so less likely to be bruising

white spot is the high nail hole.  heat is radiating up from there.

both feet from RHS - normal thermal pattern:

clearly shows nail hole as red spot and heat above it:

 right fore foot: good medio-lateral foot balance - equal zones of colour around the hoof

left fore foot - red dot equals nail hole

both front feet:  left one red hot

left fore foot - red circle with white dot equals nail hole
