The Whole Horse Exam (WHE) is a collection of skills that all horse owners and equine professionals should be able to perform on their horse. These skills include taking basic vital signs and assessing other health indicators. The WHE should become as natural to you as catching or riding your horse.
A thorough visual evaluation and manual palpation of the limbs in weightbearing and non-weightbearing positions is critical at the beginning of the lameness examination. Conformation should be evaluated and the horse visually checked for symmetry, swellings, muscle loss, abnormal stance, and obvious injuries.
The cost for this is $200-300. For ultrasound we routinely use advanced techniques which include on and off incidence scanning in addition to non-weight bearing and color flow Doppler scanning to provide the most comprehensive exam. Ultrasound cost between $275-300 for a region or limb.
The Price Tag The price of a basic pre-purchase exam will vary from one veterinary practice to another, but in general you can expect to pay from $250 to $500.
Q: How much does it cost to get my horses stomach scoped? A: It depends on who does the scope, whether it is performed in the field or in hospital, how much sedation your horse requires and whether any other diagnostic test is performed. Ballpark estimate for the scope ALONE is usually between $250-500.

Your vet will want to manually palpate the horses entire body, checking the lymph nodes, inspecting its skin for parasites or inflammation and feeling all the muscles, joints and tendons for stiffness or pain. Hooves will be checked for s, white line disease and other problems.
