Veterinary Thermal Imaging (VTI) Is Celebrating Its Fourth Birthday In February

Thermal asymmetry in hocks Nationwide thermal imaging company Veterinary Thermal Imaging (VTI) is celebrating its fourth birthday during February…and has captured an amazing amount of images since its launch! “When VTI started, it was just me, but we’ve grown since that time and now have thermographers all over the UK, meaning that we truly are nationwide,” says Helen Morrell, Managing Director of VTI. “As we approach our fourth birthday, I thought it might be fun to see how many images I’ve reviewed for clients…and it’s a whopping 29,400! It takes, on average, five minutes to tune an image and review it…so I’ve spent 147,000 minutes just looking at thermal images! With all our thermographers, we’ve captured tens, if not hundreds of thousands of images over the years, and helped thousands of horses, dogs and other animals. As with any imaging technique, experience counts for an awful lot, and I’m so proud of the collective experience the VTI team can offer and how their work has helped so many people.” VTI uses infrared cameras to map heat patterns across an animal’s body in an entirely non-invasive way. The animal doesn’t require sedation, and there’s no need to transport the animal as the state of the art cameras used are entirely mobile. The team are all trained thermographers and work with vets, physios, trainers, chiropractors, farriers and other associated professionals, to help the animals they image. Thermal imaging can be used as a diagnostic tool, but can also be used for management, to monitor the efficacy of a treatment, to observe an old injury…even for rider training and saddle fitting! Scans start from just £30 plus travel so, on top of all this, VTI is affordable too. To find out more, see www.veterinary-thermal-imaging.com or call 0844 544 3314.
