Increasingly lumbosacral and sacroiliac joint region pain are being recognised as common causes of poor performance. The international multidisciplinary panel consisting of a physiotherapist and orthopaedic specialists/surgeons, will discuss possible causes, common presenting signs and the interplay between those conditions and other lameness causes. How can we accurately diagnose lumbosacral and/or sacroiliac joint pain and what imaging modalities can we use? How sensitive and specific are these imaging modalities? Are local anaesthetic techniques replacing imaging modalities? How should those conditions most effectively be treated/managed and what impact do they have on the future performance of the horse?
