Abstract
Introduction: Proximal sesamoid bone (PSB) fracture is the leading cause of fatal limb fracture in Thoroughbred racehorses in the United States and Hong Kong. Efforts are underway to investigate diagnostic modalities that could help identify racehorses at increased risk of fracture; however, features associated with PSB fracture risk are still poorly understood.
