Scientific publications on canine orthopaedics and movement analysis
Our scientific publications on canine orthopaedics provide research on gait analysis and biomechanics. We present detailed studies that focus on preventive measures and improving the orthopaedic health of dogs.
Our scientific studies
LupoGait has been investigated in several scientific studies to validate the precision and reproducibility of IMU-based gait analysis.

Study 1 – Veterinary and Animal Science, Vol. 21, September 23
Validation of IMU-based gait analysis
Study title: Extraction of gait characteristics of dogs using a mobile gait analysis system based on inertial measurement units
Objective: To investigate the accuracy and reproducibility of IMU measurements compared to existing diagnostic methods
Result: High agreement with clinical assessments, more precise detection of small gait deviations than by visual methods

Study 2 – Veterinary and Animal Science, Vol. 25, September 24
Early detection of orthopaedic abnormalities with IMU sensors
Study title: Serial kinematic analysis using inertial measurement devices in growing dogs at risk of hip dysplasia
Objective: Long-term study to identify movement patterns in dogs with suspected HD
Result: Early detection of 13 movement parameters that correlate with HD before clinical signs become apparent
