last updated 7/2/2025

Consists of seven 50-minute lectures and/or discussion periods and seven 120-to-150-minute laboratory sessions, plus a comprehensive final exam. Course material is based upon clinical conditions of the horse that have an anatomical basis or emphasis. Laboratory sessions include topographical anatomy; joint and nerve injections and performance of other clinical procedures; use of multimedia learning aids; and dissection of the head, neck, viscera, and legs.

Learning Outcomes

1Recognize, describe and demonstrate the features, positions, and topographical locations of normal anatomical structures which are necessary for conduct of physical examination, including rectal palpation; diagnostic procedures, including contemporary imaging procedures; medical and surgical treatment of common disorders; and necropsy examination of equid animals.

2Identify relevant landmarks and be able to perform the most commonly conducted intra-articular injections; intra-synovial injections; and desensitization of nerves to produce of local and regional anesthesia ("nerve blocks") in horses. Explain the anatomical basis of each procedure, as well as the rationale underlying the procedures, and the level of diagnostic and therapeutic specificity of each procedure.

3Describe structure-function inter-relationships of clinically important organs and structures in horses, particularly as they relate to commonly encountered clinical abnormalities.
