The pathology and epidemiology of equine pregnancy loss

This investment will develop a system to investigate and record the pathology of mid to late term pregnancy losses in Thoroughbred mares throughout Australia. This will allow the industry to develop strategies to reduce the number of mares suffering pregnancy loss and will provide training tools for veterinarians and pathologist to improve the diagnostic accuracy of investigations. This project will also consider how a national database of causes of pregnancy loss within the thoroughbred industry could be developed.
