Accurate lameness diagnosis is dependent on a good clinical examination, localization of the sources of pain causing lameness, high-quality diagnostic imaging, knowledge of both image interpretation and the limitations of each imaging modality, and recognizing the need to correlate all pieces of information. The purpose of this paper is to provide a review of recent advances in imaging of the digit of sport horses, with particular reference to radiography, nuclear scintigraphy, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with some reference to ultrasonography.
