The heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), and rectal temperature (RT) were measured both rest and after walking. Radiographic evaluation, complete hemogram and creatine phosphokinase dosage (CPK) were primarily conducted. The IR examination was additionally undertaken, and the thermograms were analyzed using Flir Tools. Ozone therapy was performed via intramuscular in the scapular area. All comparisons were done using ANOVA and Tukey test (5%). The animal presented HR, RR, and RT all within normal ranges. When the animal was made to walk it demonstrated pain, and HR (48 beats.min-1) and RR (60 breaths.min-1). The creatine phosphokinase dosage was 79 UL-1 and the IR showed that the thoracic region had a surface temperature of up to 39.1ºC, indicating of an inflammatory process. After the ozone therapy was a reduction in the white color pattern from 39.1ºC to 37.2ºC. The infrared thermography is an efficient technique that can be used for the diagnosis of inflammation, and ozone therapy is an innovative treatment. aCavalo aClaudicação aMedicina veterinária aTermograma1 aMARTORANO, L.
