German term

Folbein

German to English Medical Livestock / Animal Husbandry Anatomy of a horse
I hope this is what it is - this is a document with almost illegible handwriting. This is supposed to be part of the anatomy of a horse.

Hi, here is the complete anatomy of a horse could it be "Fesselbein" und "Fesselbeuge"? Maybe you can clear this up with the client.
Ingeborg Gowans (X) Nov 2, 2007:
http://www.equinenaturaltherapy.com/natuerliche_pferdetherap... is a long shot: could it be "Strahlbein" this describes a disease: tendinitis" but I am really not sure. Couldn't find anything under "folbein"
Dawn Montague (asker) Nov 2, 2007:
Unfortunately no more context - except that we are talking about x-rays here. There are 2 instances of "Folbein" and one instance of "Folbeuge" (which I assume is the associated joint).
Cetacea Nov 2, 2007:
Any more context? Like a few words before and after "Folbein" (which it can't be)?

assuming that (because of the illegible handwriting) the word means: Fesselbein then this would make sense here. I hope this helps
Peer comment(s):

agree Assem Mazloum : makes sense here

well it could be that or Hufbein; it all depends on the original which was hard to read apparently :shukran!

Hollow bone

Could it be Holbein = Hollow Bone?
Peer comment(s):

disagree Ingeborg Gowans (X) : sorry but it would be "hohl" if anything. Holbein was a painter. I think you might have mixed things up here?

Hufbein /Hufbeuge

Hi Dawn! A few more words might really do it...

It could be ***Hufbein*** (that's nearer to "Fol" from the point of view of letters) and ***Hufbeuge***
