HARNESSNG NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO PREVENT HORSE LAMENESS.

"AERI is proud to share our ex-vivo visualization of the fetlock (left), generated through advanced segmentation and registration algorithms and multiple computed tomography (CT) volume images. In this animation (left) we have focused on the critical sesamoid bones of the forelimb and computed all bone motion relative to the lateral sesamoid. This visualization illustrates the potential of newer technology known as XROMM that will enable visualization and precise measurement of the equine lower limb in live horses during actual motion."

THE FUTURE OF EQUINE SOUNDNESS.

Every day we ask our horses to run faster, jump higher, and work harder. Unfortunately, lameness happens all too often. The mission of the Advanced Equine Research Institute is to reduce the risk and incidence of lameness by sponsoring research and developing new technologies that help protect and support the horse’s lower limb. AERI is bringing unprecedented clinical rigor and innovative design to create practical solutions to help keep our horses safe and sound.


COMING SOON: NEW PREVENTATIVE TECHNOLOGY TO PREVENT HORSE LAMENESS.

The sooner the better! We are fast-tracking innovative technologies that will deliver measurably effective integrated lower limb ligament and tendon protection, superior to current products to help protect and prevent athletic horse lameness.

Our discovery process for the mechanism of injury, and for identifying unmet needs for prevention, is a global collaborative effort of leading researchers and equine practitioners. AERI's solutions will be respectfully presented to you and other equine professionals with clinical data that supports the effectiveness of the design.
