MRI at Cave Creek Equine

The science of equine MRI is growing rapidly, and knowing what to do with the information gained from an MRI study is the key to a sound horse. We have been performing MRI studies on horses since 2004, and have gained a large knowledge base.

   A state-of-the-art open Rotating Grande magnet has been installed in a customized facility at Cave Creek Equine Surgical & Diagnostic Imaging Center.  This system allows for effective and efficient imaging of orthopedic and soft tissue disorders in horses, dogs and cats. The latest MRI is not only faster (requiring shorter anesthesia times), but provides superior image quality.

Cave Creek Equine Surgical & Diagnostic Imaging Center is owned and operated by Dr. Ross Rich. It is a two veterinarian practice that focuses on providing high quality sports medicine, diagnostics and surgery.
