First Week of Training at Mizzou - Equina CT Scanner

In the heart of the Midwest stands the University of Missouri Veterinary Health Center (Columbia, MO), known for its state-of-the-art facilities and high levels of care. They have increased their capabilities further with the installation of an equine standing CT (Computed Tomography) scanner.

MU Equine Clinician Dr. Kevin Keegan states, “This is a fan-beam CT that has high image quality with reduced radiation exposure and allows for true standing imaging. Previously we were scanning all our CT cases under general anesthesia. Now we have the ability to scan front and hind limb pairs and the head and neck with only light sedation. This will fast-track the treatment and prognosis in many cases. We see this technology becoming widely adopted among horse owners because of the reduced cost and quick scans.”
