As part of its horse racing safety reform package, Santa Anita announced Wednesday that it is purchasing a machine that can provide rarely seen imaging of a horse’s ankle in the hopes of detecting injuries earlier. The track will be putting a Longmile Positron Emission Tomography Scan machine, called a MILE-PET, in its equine hospital on the backstretch of Santa Anita. While PET technology has been used on humans for a while, it is very rare to use it on horses. The machine will allow for the fetlock joint to be scanned while the horse is standing. It reduces the use of anesthesia when taking scans.

“You cannot overstate how significant an advancement this is in equine diagnostic imaging and it’s a natural fit here in California,” said Dr. Rick Arthur, the chief veterinarian for the California Horse Racing Board. “PET is an advanced nuclear imaging technique and Santa Anita is already the home of the Dolly Green Nuclear Scintigraphy facility, which was the first of its kind when it was installed.
