摘要
Veterinarians have begun using extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) for treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) in horses, although relatively little information has been published about its efficacy or mechanism of action. As a clinician, it can be difficult to know if and when ESWT should be recommended. Case studies in which ESWT is used to treat advanced OA in horses are discussed. ESWT seems to be a valuable adjunct for management of equine CIA. It is the purpose of this article to discuss indications and techniques as well as to share clinical experiences using ESWT in the treatment of CA in the horse.
