BackgroundObjective gait analysis is becoming more popular as a tool assisting veterinarians during the clinical lameness exam. At present, there is only limited information on the effect of misplacement of markers/motion-sensors.ObjectivesTo investigate and describe the effect of marker misplacement on commonly calculated pelvic symmetry parameters.Study designExperimental study.MethodsEach horse was equipped with custom-made devices consisting of several reflective markers arranged in a predefined manner with a reference marker correctly positioned regarding the anatomical landmark and several misplaced markers along the sagittal and transverse planes. Linear regression analysis was used to estimate the effect of marker misplacement.ResultsFor the tubera sacrale, each cm of left/right misplacement led to a difference in minimum position of the pelvis (PDmin) of 1.67mm (95% CI 1.54-1.8mm) (P
