Regenerative medicine includes therapies designed to repair or replace injured tissues. Veterinarians’ use of these treatments in horses has expanded rapidly, especially for musculoskeletal injuries. Tissue repair relies on three key components: cells, cellular signals, and tissue scaffolding. In this presentation Lindsey Boone, DVM, PhD, Dipl. ACVS-LA, will discuss common myths and misconceptions about equine regenerative medicine. She will also explain how available regenerative therapies work, and outline preparation and treatment methods with a focus on the core elements of tissue repair.
