Abstract
A diagnostic tool for use in trimming and shoeing a hoof includes a substantially planar base having a top surface and a bottom surface. A heel member is coupled to the base. At least one radio-opaque marker is rigidly coupled to said top surface of said base. In use, a hoof is positioned on the base, with the hoof resting on the top surface and a heel portion of the hoof placed against the heel member. A side view radiographic image of the hoof positioned on the base is made, with the at least one radio-opaque marker being visible therein. Accurate hoof measurements and location determinations may then be obtained, with reference to the at least one radio-opaque marker in the radiographic image.
