veterinary biomechanics

Veterinary biomechanics is the study of how animals move and maintain their bodies, focusing on the mechanics behind their movements and physical structures. It combines principles from physics and biology to analyze how muscles, bones, tendons, and joints work together during activities like walking, running, and jumping. This field helps veterinarians understand how to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal disorders, improve surgical outcomes, and enhance the performance of working or competitive animals. By understanding the mechanics of animal movement, professionals can better support their health and mobility.
