Equine Laminitis is the 2nd largest killer of horses behind Colic. Researchers from around the world have done many experiments in an effort to understand the effects of this crippling disease. In an attempt to show how the horse’s feet are affected by Laminitis we conducted a 48-hour experiment with Professor Christopher C. Pollitt BVSc (Massey) PhD (Qld). Professor Pollitt is the director of the Australian Equine Laminitis Research Unit (AELRU) and has written and traveled extensively on the subject of horse hooves. In 2003 he received the Pfizer Scientific award for his work. The images taken during this experiment were put together in a time lapse presentation by Professor Pollitt from the University of Queensland. These thermal images have enabled the Professor to visually show the temperature changes to the hoof during the first 48 hours of a horse with Laminitis. The images also have been used during speaking engagements by Professor Pollitt around the world.
