Conditions affecting the back, pelvis and sacroiliac region are common in the horse and can cause pain, poor performance and lameness.

This 2-day practical course is suitable for veterinarians from mixed and equine practice who are keen to update their knowledge on the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and up-to-date therapy of back, pelvic and sacroiliac problems in the horse.
