Equine gastric ulcers are one of the most common\u2014and often overlooked\u2014causes of poor performance, weight loss, and discomfort in horses. At Woodside Equine Clinic<\/strong>, we offer gastroscopy for horses as the most accurate and reliable method to diagnose Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS)<\/strong> and other stomach-related conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether your horse is showing subtle signs of digestive discomfort or has been struggling with performance or behavior issues, our team provides thorough, evidence-based diagnosis through equine stomach scoping<\/strong>\u2014available both in the clinic<\/strong> and on the farm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is Equine Gastroscopy and Why Is It Important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gastroscopy is a diagnostic procedure that allows veterinarians to visually examine the inside of a horse\u2019s stomach<\/strong> using a 3.5-meter-long video endoscope<\/strong>. It is the only definitive way to diagnose equine gastric ulcers and evaluate the extent and location of stomach lesions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common signs that your horse may benefit from a gastroscopy include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Poor performance or lack of focus under saddle<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reluctance to go forward or girthiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Weight loss or difficulty maintaining condition<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Changes in appetite or attitude<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Recurrent mild colic<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Resistance to training or behavioral changes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    While these signs may be subtle, identifying and treating ulcers early is critical to maintaining your horse\u2019s health and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How Does a Horse Gastroscopy Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    For optimal visualization, horses must be fasted for 12 to 16 hours<\/strong> before the procedure to allow a clear view of the stomach lining. At Woodside Equine Clinic<\/strong>, we offer the convenience of fasting your horse overnight in our clinic<\/strong> if you’re bringing them in for the procedure. This makes scheduling easy and reduces stress for both horse and owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The procedure is performed with the horse standing and lightly sedated. The scope is passed through the nostril, down the esophagus, and into the stomach. We evaluate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • The squamous (non-glandular) region<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The glandular region<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The margo plicatus (junction of the two regions)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • The pylorus (outflow tract to the intestine)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      The procedure takes approximately 20\u201330 minutes<\/strong>, and clients are welcome to watch and discuss findings in real time with our veterinarians.<\/p>\n\n\n

      Clinic or Farm: Flexible Gastroscopy Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Woodside Equine Clinic offers equine gastroscopy both in-house and in the field<\/strong>. Our mobile gastroscopy unit<\/strong> allows us to bring the scope directly to your barn for convenience and comfort. For more involved cases or additional diagnostics, horses can be evaluated at our clinic, where they benefit from a full support team and access to advanced care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      When you bring your horse to the clinic, we can manage fasting on-site<\/strong>, making the process smooth and stress-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Advanced Diagnosis: Equine Gastroscopic Biopsy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      In cases where we find unusual lesions, inflammation, or masses<\/strong>, we can perform gastroscopic biopsies<\/strong> during the same procedure. Using specialized tools passed through the scope, we take small tissue samples for laboratory analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This is especially useful when:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Ulcers are not responding to standard treatment<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • There is concern for cancer or chronic inflammation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • A more specific diagnosis is needed to guide treatment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Our ability to perform gastroscopic biopsy for horses<\/strong> adds another layer of precision and peace of mind when dealing with complex cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Treatment Plans Tailored to Your Horse<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        After the procedure, your horse can return to their normal feeding schedule. If ulcers or other issues are identified, we\u2019ll develop a personalized treatment and management plan<\/strong>, which may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Acid-suppressing medications (e.g., omeprazole)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Medications to increase mucous production\u00a0and protect the stomach lining (e.g., sucralfate, misoprostol)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Diet modifications (e.g., increased forage, alfalfa, smaller more frequent meals)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Stress-reducing changes to management or turnout routine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          We typically recommend a follow-up gastroscopy in 30 days<\/strong> to ensure healing is progressing and treatment is effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Schedule an Equine Gastroscopy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
