In this retrospective, exploratory, diagnostic accuracy study, a machine learning (ML) scheme was applied to link quantitative features and qualitative descriptors to leverage MRI characteristics of different grades of tearing of the DDFT of horses. A qualitative MRI characteristic scheme, combining tendon morphologic features, altered signal intensity, and synovial sheath distention, was used for LT classification with an excellent diagnostic accuracy of the high‐grade tears but more limited accuracy for the detection of low‐grade tears. A quantitative ML approach was followed to measure the contribution of 30 quantitative phenotypic features for characterizing and classifying tendinous tears. Among the 30 imaging features, boundary curvature represented by the standard deviation and maximum had the most significant discriminatory power (P < 0.05) between normal and abnormal tendons and could be used as an aid for classifying the different grades of LTs of DDFTs. Imaging analysis‐based 3D interactive surface plot supports qualitative characterization of different grades of LTs of the DDFT through clearer visualization of the tendon in three dimensions and simple integration of two perspectives features (i.e., margin/distribution and intensity/distribution). A systematic approach combining quantitative features with qualitative analyses using ML was diagnostically beneficial in MRI characterization and in discriminating between different grades of LTs of the DDFT of horses.}, journal={VETERINARY RADIOLOGY & ULTRASOUND}, author={ELKhamary, Ahmed N. and Keenihan, Erin K. and Schnabel, Lauren V and Redding, William R. and Schumacher, Jim}, year={2022}, month={Apr} } @misc{adair_baus_belknap_bell_boero_bussy_cardenas_casey_castro_davis_et al._2018, title={Response to Letter to the Editor: Do we have to redefine lameness in the era of quantitative gait analysis}, volume={50}, ISSN={["2042-3306"]}, DOI={10.1111/evj.12820}, abstractNote={Equine Veterinary JournalVolume 50, Issue 3 p. 415-417 Correspondence Response to Letter to the Editor: Do we have to redefine lameness in the era of quantitative gait analysis S.

Follow‐up information was obtained from re‐examination visits and/or owners.ResultsTwenty‐one cases were identified at 9 equine hospitals between 2004 and 2016. A history of trauma and acute onset of lameness was reported in 12 horses. All cases underwent fracture removal via arthroscopy of the medial femorotibial joint. The cranial cruciate ligament was intact in 6 horses and damaged in 15 horses (damage was ≤25% [n = 9], 25–50% [n = 4] or ≥50% [n = 2] of the cross‐sectional area). The cranial ligament of the medial meniscus was damaged in 11 horses (≤25% [n = 8], 25–50% [n = 3]). The medial meniscus was damaged in 5 horses and articular cartilage damage was identified in 14 horses (mild [n = 8], moderate [n = 6]). Follow‐up information (median 14 months; 4 months–6 years) was available for 20 cases; 2 horses were sound but convalescing; 13 horses were sound and returned to their previous or expected use. Of the 4 horses with the most severe changes to the articular soft tissue structures, 2 remained lame and 2 were subjected to euthanasia because of persistent lameness.Main limitationsThe retrospective, multicentre nature of this study and the limited number of horses are the main limitations.ConclusionsFractures of the MICET are commonly associated with a traumatic event.

The majority of PSB fractures are diagnosed in racehorses, but PSB fractures, especially simple ones, do occur in sport horses undertaking various disciplines. For simple apical, basilar and abaxial articular PSB fractures, surgical removal via arthroscopy carries the best prognosis for return to athletic performance. Removal of apical and abaxial PSB fractures generally result in a favourable prognosis for return to racing but are dependent on the amount of suspensory ligament injury. Removal of basilar PSB fracture fragments results in a less favourable or fair prognosis for return to racing. Mid‐body PSB fractures typically require (lag screw) surgical fixation preferably with arthroscopic guidance and carry a fair to guarded prognosis for return to racing.}, number={8}, journal={EQUINE VETERINARY EDUCATION}, author={Schnabel, L.

Understanding these alterations could enhance diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) could be a valuable method for evaluation of blood flow and perfusion of these processes in the equine distal limb, however no reports were found describing feasibility or safety of the technique. The goal of this prospective, experimental study was to describe the feasibility and safety of distal limb CEUS in a sample of six horses. For each horse, CEUS of the distal limb was performed after intravenous injections of 5 and 10 ml, as well as intra‐arterial injections of 0.5 and 1 ml contrast medium. Vital parameters were monitored and CEUS images were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively for degree of contrast enhancement. None of the horses had clinically significant changes in their vital parameters after contrast medium injection. One horse had a transient increase in respiratory rate, and several horses had mild increases of systolic blood pressure of short duration after intravenous, but not after intra‐arterial injections. Intra‐arterial injection was possible in all horses and resulted in significantly improved contrast enhancement both quantitatively (P = 0.027) and qualitatively (P = 0.019). Findings from this study indicated that CEUS is a feasible and safe diagnostic test for evaluation of the equine distal limb.

Recently, elastography has been proven to be a feasible and repeatable imaging modality for evaluating normal tendons and ligaments of the equine distal forelimb. The purposes of this prospective study were to investigate the ability of elastography to detect spontaneously occurring lesions of equine tendons and ligaments diagnosed with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and gray‐scale ultrasound (US) and to characterize the differences in the elastographic appearance of acute vs. chronic injuries. Fifty seven horses with a total of 65 lesions were evaluated. Images were assessed quantitatively and qualitatively. Acute lesions were found to be significantly softer (P < 0.0001) than chronic lesions (P < 0.0001) and the stiffness of lesions increased with progression of healing (P = 0.0138). A negative correlation between lesion hypoechogenicity and softness was appreciated with more hypoechoic lesions appearing softer (P = 0.0087) and more hyperechoic regions harder (P = 0.0002). A similar finding occurred with increased signal intensity on short tau inversion recovery (STIR) and proton density (PD) MRI sequences correlating with increased softness on elastography (P = 0.0164). Using US and MRI as references, commonly encountered soft tissue injuries of the equine distal limb could be detected with elastography. However, elastography was limited for detecting small, proximal injuries of the hindlimb proximal suspensory ligament. Elastographic evaluation of equine tendons and ligaments may allow better characterization of lesion chronicity and severity, and sequential examinations may optimize lesion management, rehabilitation, and return to training.}, number={6}, journal={VETERINARY RADIOLOGY & ULTRASOUND}, author={Lustgarten, Meghann and Redding, W.

It has been used in man to aid interventional therapies and has been shown to be valuable for sampling and assessing lesions diagnosed with MRI or CT that are equivocal on ultrasonography. To date, there are no reports of the use of this modality in veterinary medicine.ObjectivesTo assess whether navigational ultrasound imaging can be used to assist commonly performed interventional therapies for the treatment of equine musculoskeletal injuries diagnosed with MRI and determine the appropriateness of regional anatomical landmarks as registration sites.Study designRetrospective, descriptive clinical study.MethodsHorses with musculoskeletal injuries of the distal limb diagnosed with MRI scheduled for ultrasound‐guided interventional therapies were evaluated (n = 17 horses with a total of 29 lesions). Anatomical landmarks used for image registration for the navigational procedure were documented. Accuracy of lesion location and success of the procedure were assessed subjectively and described using a grading scale.ResultsAll procedures were accurately registered using regional anatomical landmarks and considered successful based on our criteria. Anatomical landmarks were described for each lesion type. The addition of navigational imaging was considered to greatly aid the procedures in 59% of cases and added information to the remainder of the procedures. The technique was considered to improve the precision of these interventional procedures.ConclusionsNavigational ultrasound imaging is a complementary imaging modality that can be used for the treatment of equine soft tissue musculoskeletal injuries diagnosed with MRI.}, number={2}, journal={EQUINE VETERINARY JOURNAL}, author={Lustgarten, M. and Redding, W.

Gray‐scale ultrasonography is the current standard method for diagnosing and monitoring these injuries, however this modality only provides morphologic information. Elastography is an ultrasound technique that allows detection and measurement of tissue strain, and may provide valuable mechanical information about equine tendon and ligament injuries. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility, reproducibility, and repeatability of elastography; and to describe elastographic characteristics of metacarpal tendons in sound horses. Nineteen legs for 17 clinically sound horses without evidence of musculoskeletal pathology were included. Elastographic images of the superficial and deep digital flexor tendons and the branches of the suspensory ligament (tendon of the interosseous muscle) were described quantitatively and qualitatively. There was no statistically significant difference between operators (P = 0.86) nor within operators (P = 0.93). For qualitative assessments, reproducibility (0.46) was moderate and repeatability (0.78) was good. Similar to human Achilles tendons, equine tendons were classified as predominantly hard using elastography. There was no statistically significant difference in stiffness of the flexor tendons (P = 0.96). No significant difference in stiffness was found with altered leg position during standing (P = 0.84) and while nonweight bearing (P = 0.61). The flexor tendons were softer when imaged in longitudinal versus transverse planes (P < 0.01) however, the suspensory branches were not (P = 0.67).

However, quantification of external foot conformation requires more comprehensive assessments to capture the shape of the entire foot. Volumetric measurements of the hoof capsule represent a summary measure quantifying foot shape. The aim of this study was to develop a method for computation of virtual foot models from digital foot images allowing precise and accurate volumetric measurements. This photogrammetric technique was then assessed for the characterization of foot volume changes associated with foot trimming. Using the technique, three different photographers imaged feet from 18 cadavers at different time points and one analyst processed their images to generate virtual computer models. Volumetric measurements were obtained from these models to determine their precision in the context of ‘Photographer’, ‘Time’ and the effect of ‘Trimming’. Computed tomographic (CT) imaging was used to assess the accuracy of the photogrammetric method. Pre-trim photogrammetric measurements showed excellent precision and accuracy and the results did not depend on the person acquiring the images. The accuracy of post-trim photogrammetric measurements deteriorated in comparison with the average differences measured by CT imaging (19 cm3). Precise volumetric measurements were obtained using the photogrammetric method, but average differences in foot volume after trimming as measured by CT imaging are likely too small to be detected with confidence.}, number={3}, journal={VETERINARY JOURNAL}, author={Labens, R. and Redding, W.

Management options range from supportive treatments, in the form of corrective trimming and remedial shoeing, to systemic and local administration of anti-inflammatories, tiludronate, extracorporeal shock wave therapy or, in the most refractory cases, palmar digital neurectomies (Rijkenhuizen 2006). The key to successful long-term management is knowledge of the exact nature of the condition; palmar foot pain is a clinical sign and not a diagnosis. Often defined by the response of the palmar digital nerves (PDN) to analgesia, many different conditions may fall into this category such that this blocking pattern would more aptly be regarded as an indicator of foot pain instead (Schumacher and others 2004, Dyson and others 2005, Murray and others 2006). To name only a few conditions, horses with lameness due to solar bruises, osteoarthritis/synovitis of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint, deep digital flexor (DDF) tendinopathy, navicular bone disease or navicular bursitis typically improve greatly when this nerve block is applied, while a partial response might be achieved in horses with collateral ligament desmitis of the DIP joint and more extensive DDF tendon injuries.

However, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has been stated to be superior for detecting disease and localizing lesions. In this retrospective study of 39 horses or 46 hind limbs with lameness due to proximal plantar metatarsal pain, the clinical and diagnostic findings are discussed and sonography and MR imaging compared for examination of the proximal part of the suspensory ligament. With MR imaging interpreted as the clinical gold standard, desmopathy of the proximal part of the suspensory ligament was diagnosed in 21 hind limbs, proximal plantar metatarsal pain of unknown cause in 12, an osseous injury at the origin of the suspensory ligament in four and a condition unrelated to the suspensory ligament in nine. Based on these findings, sonography had a sensitivity of 0.77 and 0.66 and specificity of 0.33 and 0.31 for diagnosing proximal suspensory desmopathy and for accurately localizing lesions, respectively. MR imaging changes consistent with proximal suspensory desmopathy were signal hyperintensities and an increase in cross‐sectional area compared with the contralateral limb.

The identification of the cause of lameness originating from the MP joint can be challenging, given the limitations of radiography, ultrasonography, and nuclear scintigraphy. Our purpose was to describe the injury types and incidence in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies from 40 horses with lameness attributable to the MP joint region where it was not possible to reach a clinically plausible diagnosis using other imaging modalities. Horses were examined in a 1.5 T magnet (Siemens Medical Solutions) under general anesthesia. The frequency of occurrence of MR lesions was subchondral bone injury (19), straight or oblique distal sesamoidean desmitis (13), articular cartilage injury and osteoarthritis (eight), suspensory branch desmitis (seven), osteochondral fragmentation (seven), proximal sesamoid bone injury (seven), inter-sesamoidean desmitis (four), deep digital flexor tendonitis (four), collateral desmitis (three), superficial digital flexor tendonitis (two), enostosis-like lesions of the proximal phalanx or MCIII (two), desmitis of the palmar annular ligament (one), desmitis of the proximal digital annular ligament (one), and dystrophic calcification of the lateral digital extensor tendon (one). Twenty-five horses had multiple MR abnormalities. MRI provided information that was complementary to radiography, ultrasonography, and nuclear scintigraphy and that allowed for a comprehensive evaluation of all structures in the MP joint region and a diagnosis in all 40 horses.}, number={4}, journal={Veterinary Radiology & Ultrasound}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Gonzalez, Liara M. and Schramme, Michael C. and Robertson, Ian D. and Thrall, Donald E. and Redding, Rich W.}, year={2010}, month={Apr}, pages={404–414} } @article{little_redding_gerard_2009, title={Osseous cyst-like lesions of the lateral infertubercular groove of the proximal humerus: A report of 5 cases}, volume={21}, ISSN={["2042-3292"]}, DOI={10.2746/095777308X382678}, abstractNote={SummaryThis report documents the case presentation, evaluation, treatment and outcome of 5 horses with an osseous cystlike lesion (OCLL) of the intertubercular groove of the proximal aspect of the humerus. In 3 of the 5 cases, delayed phase gamma scintigraphic findings demonstrated increased radiopharmaceutical uptake in the region of the intermediate tubercle of the proximal humerus of the affected limb, demonstrating increased bone remodelling in this region. In 4 of the 5 horses, an OCLL was identified in the intermediate tubercle of the proximal humerus, and in one horse the OCLL was identified in the greater tubercle. Medial‐lateral and craniomedial‐caudolateral oblique radiographic views were helpful to see the lesions in all cases. Ultrasonography confirmed the location of the subchondral and fibrocartilage defect associated with the OCLL and confirmed communication of the cyst with the lateral intertubercular groove of the humerus in 3 of the 5 cases. Ultrasonography also confirmed a variable degree of bicipital tendonitis in 3 of the horses. OCLL of the lateral intertubercular groove of the proximal humerus should be considered in the evaluation of any mature horse with lameness isolated to the bicipital bursa. Development of these OCLL may be a result of trauma or altered limb biomechanics as a result of shoulder osteoarthritis or concurrent chronic lameness, which leads to disruption or thinning of the fibrocartilage, remodelling of the subchondral bone and subsequent cyst development.}, number={2}, journal={EQUINE VETERINARY EDUCATION}, author={Little, D. and Redding, W.

Constitutively expressed COX-1 is involved in physiologic functions such as maintenance of gastric mucosal integrity, whereas COX-2 is up-regulated at sites of inflammation. Thus, COX-2 inhibitors reduce inflammation with reduced gastrointestinal side effects as compared to non-selective COX inhibitors. The objective of the present study was to compare the anti-inflammatory effects of the preferential COX-2 inhibitor etodolac with the non-selective COX inhibitor phenylbutazone in horses with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced synovitis. Three groups of horses (n = 6) received no treatment, phenylbutazone (4.4 mg/kg, IV, q12h), or etodolac (23 mg/kg, IV, q12h), respectively, 2-h following injection of LPS into one middle carpal joint. Synovial fluid was analyzed for white blood cell (WBC) count, and TXB2 and PGE2 levels. Phenylbutazone and etodolac significantly reduced WBC count 6 and 24-h following injection of LPS compared to untreated horses. In addition, both drugs significantly reduced PGE2 levels (P < 0.05) 6-h following LPS injection, whereas the probable COX-1 prostanoid TXB2 was significantly reduced by phenylbutazone (P < 0.05), but not etodolac. Etodolac may serve as a more selective anti-inflammatory agent than phenylbutazone for treatment of equine synovitis.}, number={2}, journal={Research in Veterinary Science}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Morton, Alison J. and Campbell, Nigel B. and Gayle, J’mai M. and Redding, W.

Radiography of the distal phalanges revealed severe rotation in the right lateral and left medial digits of the hind limbs. The laminitis was nonresponsive to medical management; therefore, a deep digital flexor tenotomy was performed in the affected claws.

The reference population included 48 horses that defecated ≥ 4 times during the same period. Demographic, clinical, and surgical variables were evaluated for their association with development of RPFO by use of logistic regression analysis.Results—Ten (12%) horses, all of which had RPFO, developed signs of colic after surgery. Horses ≥ 5 years old that underwent orthopedic procedures of > 60 minutes’ duration and that did not receive phenylbutazone after surgery were at significant risk for developing RPFO.Conclusions and Clinical Relevance—Results suggest that after surgery unrelated to the gastrointestinal tract in horses, there is an intermediate clinical phase characterized by reduced fecal output preceding overt signs of colic. Recognition of RPFO may reduce morbidity and mortality of such horses.

Part 1: Indications, technique and examination of the soft tissues}, volume={13}, DOI={10.1111/j.2042-3292.2001.tb00090.x}, abstractNote={Ultrasonography has advanced significantly the diagnosis and management of many types of musculoskeletal injuries in performance horses. In particular, diagnostic ultrasound is routinely used for defining and monitoring injuries to the flexor tendons and suspensory apparatus (Rantanen 1985; Genovese et al. 1987; Denoix et al. 1991; Dik et al. 1991). However, it can also be used to evaluate a variety of joint conditions (Denoix 1996). Joint injury, osteochondrosis and degenerative joint disease are significant causes of lameness in performance horses. Often, a joint is suspected as the cause of lameness but the specific source of pain can be difficult to ascertain (Stashak 1987). Intra-articular anaesthesia often significantly improves the lameness and localises it to a particular joint, but radiography may be inconclusive. In such a case, the cause of lameness is presumed to be soft tissue injury and empirical treatment is instituted. However, examining the joint surfaces and articular supporting structures using ultrasound allows more thorough evaluation of the joint and therefore aids in selection of the most appropriate treatment plan and rehabilitation regimen. Evaluation of any joint problem should begin with a thorough clinical examination, including detailed history, physical examination, gait evaluation and manipulative tests, as appropriate; and, if necessary, diagnostic regional anaesthesia (nerve and/or joint blocks). Other diagnostic procedures, such as thermography, nuclear imaging, treadmill gait analysis and neurological evaluation, may be warranted in selected cases (Lamb 1991; O’Callaghan 1991; Steckle 1991; Turner 1991). When lameness is localised to a joint, a complete radiographic study should be performed to identify any abnormality in or around the joint. Echographical evaluation of the joint (arthrosonography) and surrounding tissues should also be considered (Benson 1991; Dik 1993; Mack and Scheible 1995; Denoix 1996, 1998). While radiography has proven to be very effective in imaging the bones of the equine limb, there can be poor correlation between clinical and radiographic findings (O’Callaghan 1991). When used in combination, radiography and ultrasonography can supply more information about an orthopaedic problem than when each modality is used alone. Diagnostic ultrasound has the added advantage of providing immediate, detailed information about the soft tissues of a joint and the cartilage and subchondral bone surfaces. In this article, the indicators, technique and examination of the soft tissues using ultrasonography to evaluate joint diseases in horses is discussed.}, number={4}, journal={Equine Veterinary Education}, author={Redding, W.

Particular attention was paid to the articular cartilage surfaces of the trochlear ridges of the talus and the distal intermediate ridge of the tibia. Two separate measurements of articular cartilage thickness were acquired from a longitudinal view at each site. Anatomy was confirmed with post mortem dissection. Ultrasonography was found to be a practical method for imaging the articular cartilage over the trochlear ridges of the talus and distal intermediate ridge of the tibia. The cartilage appeared as a hypoechoic band overlying the hyperechoic subchondral bone. The mean cartilage thickness over the lateral and medial trochlear ridges of the talus and the distal intermediate ridge of the tibia were 0.57 mm, 0.58 mm and 0.7 mm respectively. These measurements may have value for comparison to thickened cartilage and lesions of osteochondrosis and abnormally thinned cartilage of osteoarthritis. Ultrasound examination was not helpful in evaluating the proximal and distal intertarsal and tarsometatarsal joints, the close proximity of the articular surfaces obscured visualization of the articular cartilage.}, number={5}, journal={VETERINARY RADIOLOGY & ULTRASOUND}, author={Tomlinson, JE and Redding, WR and Sage, A}, year={2000}, pages={457–460} } @article{little_redding_spaulding_dupree_jones_2000, title={Unusual presentation of nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism in a Paint colt}, volume={2}, DOI={10.1111/j.2042-3292.2000.tb00064.x}, abstractNote={Equine Veterinary EducationVolume 12, Issue 6 p. 297-302 Unusual presentation of nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism in a Paint colt D.

To examine the effects of polysulphated glycosaminoglycan on tendon healing in a controlled collagenase injury model. Design. The study used a completely randomized design with four horses assigned to each of two groups, control and treated. The superficial digital flexor tendons from each horse were measured weekly by ultrasound techniques. The differences between groups were evaluated using t-statistics and trends summarized by simple linear regression. Animals. Eight horses (four Thoroughbreds and four Standardbreds) with normal superficial flexor tendons were divided into two groups of four. Group #1 control horses were not treated. Group #2 horses were treated with polysulphated glycosaminoglycans. Procedure. All of the horses had tendinitis induced in the superficial flexor tendon of both forelimbs by the injection of 4000 IU of collagenase. The treated group received 500 mg of polysulphated glycosaminoglycan (PSGAG) IM every five days for seven treatments beginning 24 h after injection of collagenase. The control group received saline at the same time periods. Ultrasound examination of each limb was performed on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 post-injection and weekly thereafter for eight weeks. An image analysis system was used to measure the proportion of tendon area damaged in mm2 on the recorded images, and these values were plotted over time. The horses were euthanatized at eight weeks and histological evaluation was performed on longitudinal sections of excised tendons. Results. The size of the tendon core defects created by the collagenase enzyme, represented as the proportion of area damaged, decreased significantly faster in the treatment group (ρ <0.01). Histologic evaluation of the core defects confirmed what was seen sonographically. Conclusion. Polysulphated glycosaminoglycans had a positive effect on tendon healing in a collagenase induced tendinitis model. Clinical relevance. Polysulphated glycosaminoglycans may be beneficial in managing clinical cases of tendinitis.Eight horses had experimental core defects induced in the superficial digital flexor tendon of both forelimbs. One group of four horses received PSGAG IM every 5 days for seven treatments. The control group received saline. The core defects in the PSGAG treatment group developed echogenic ultrasound patterns earlier, and the mean ratio of area of the tendon decreased significantly faster in the treatment group.}, number={2}, journal={Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology}, author={Redding, W.
