1. Major Uses of Reproductive Ultrasound in Cattle? There are multiple uses of ultrasonography in cattle. It is used to understand the situations during various stages of the estrus cycle.
It is also used to study the status of corpus luteum and ovarian follicles. Similarly, it is used in early pregnancy diagnosis and to detect early embryonic death. Fetal sex determination can be performed via ultrasound. It is a very useful tool to study the uterine involution process. It accurately helps in the identification of cystic ovary. It can be used during estrus synchronization programs. It is a very essential diagnostic tool in the identification of the pathological condition of the reproductive tracts. With the use of transrectal ultrasound, proper management of the cattle according to its condition can be done. It allows a better diagnosis of the reproductive tract than rectal palpation and is being used with constant modification and advancement.
2. The use of Reproductive ultrasonography in developed countries is popular to date,for the developing country, although, Reproductive ultrasound was introduced in 2007, it is yet to gain popularity in the context of developing countries. It may be due to the lack of well-trained practitioners and poor economic status of farmers. In developing countriesies, most of the diagnosis of reproductive abnormality in cattle is based on rectal palpation. In such a situation, ultrasonography can provide a new approach to deal with reproductive problems. Ultrasound can differentiate the layers of soft tissue and also differentiates it well from fluid with clear distinction. As Ultrasound is a non-invasive and innocuous method, it has a wide safety margin in comparison to other radiological methods. As ultrasound is comparatively cheap and easy to operate it’s gaining popularity in veterinary practice for the diagnosis of the various reproductive structures. In the context of developing countries, the practice of using transrectal ultrasound can help farmers and veterinarians to identify the condition of the reproductive tract. In large bovines, the method is relatively easy to perform under field conditions under limited resources. Ultrasound is very helpful in differentiating the various layers of soft tissue and also differentiates it well from fluid with clear distinction. It can be an effective diagnostic tool for the detection of abnormality and the pathological state of the bovine reproductive tract.
3. How to select the right ultrasound machine? BMV's cost-effective with portable machines, it can be operated in field conditions and can be used in all part of the country. Ultrasonography is relatively more accurate than transrectal palpation. The use of transrectal ultrasound is gaining popularity in the Global market with constant modification and advancement.
