Prevention is better than cure
There are cases in which imaging diagnostic procedures such as X-ray or MRI cannot provide confirmation of the suspected diagnosis or the clinical picture is too complex. In such situations, movement diagnostics using LupoGait® can provide a reliable solution. Our system enables the assessment of movement patterns independent of skeletal, muscular, fascial or neurological problems. Thus, the smallest differences in gait patterns can be determined and changes can be documented through follow-up measurements. These precise measurements offer the possibility to adjust therapy measures and ensure a reliable diagnosis.
The movement analysis with LupoGait® is based on the natural step movements of the dog and provides directly resulting values:
objective | reproducible | graphically displayed
These three components make an essential contribution to gaining complementary facts for a reliable diagnosis.
LupoGait® as a solution for effective diagnosis and therapy adjustment
When making a diagnosis, conventional diagnostic tools are often not able to assess movement patterns independently of the cause of the problems. Here, LupoGait® offers an effective solution, as it is possible to determine the smallest differences in gait patterns and track changes through follow-up measurements during follow-up. These precise measurements make it possible to adjust therapy measures if necessary and thus ensure targeted treatment.
LupoGait® is suitable for the prevention of problems in the musculoskeletal system and for the early detection of pathological conditions, even if these manifest themselves in the early stages of inflammation or as a result of muscular or fascial tension. Furthermore, LupoGait® can also be used to support the diagnosis of complex clinical pictures, even before they are visible on X-rays. In addition, LupoGait® enables precise monitoring of the rehabilitation of canine patients after operations, accidents or illnesses, as well as of specific rehabilitation programmes, especially for sports and working dogs.
