NEW research has shown that equine gait analysis has many practical applications beyond lameness assessment, to help support and improve equine health and performance.

The Equine Veterinary Journal (EVJ) is giving equine veterinary surgeons access to the latest knowledge on equine locomotion with the online publication of a quantitative gait analysis virtual issue in October 2019. A special focus section on biomechanics is also in the pipeline for publication in November and most of the papers will be free to view.
