The Motion Analysis Laboratory is located in the Veterinary Health Center at the University of Missouri, College of Veterinary Medicine.
The Motion Analysis Laboratory is designed to aid veterinary professionals with the evaluation, identification, and treatment of patients with musculoskeletal and neurologic conditions.
Many companion animals will at some time during their lives experience conditions such as osteoarthritis, cranial cruciate ligament injury, muscle or tendon strains, ligament sprains, etc. Motion analysis techniques can assist clinicians in the detection of a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries as well as help track the progress and efficacy of various medical treatments and following surgical therapies for more severe injuries.
The Motion Analysis Laboratory at the MU Veterinary Health Center is the only veterinary laboratory of its kind in Missouri and is one of the most advanced veterinary motion analysis facilities in the United States.
