Thermal Imaging

Usiing infrared thermal imaging as a mean to verify that a phisiological change has occured. Images are taken of the horse prior to dental work being performed. You can see by the time stamps that the "after" images are taken between 15 and 30 minutes after, and already, significant changes have occured.

Any use of these images for diagnostic purposes must be done by a veterinarian.
