Tag 'ultrasound'

One of the most important applications for ultrasonography lies in the ability to determine the sex of the foetus prior to birth. From just 20 weeks of gestation during human pregnancy (and sometimes even earlier) ultrasound imaging can reveal whether the baby is a boy or a girl, thus allowing the expectant parents to plan accordingly. In addition, veterinary ultrasound can also be a useful tool to help detect whether the foetus is male or female. Vet Image Solutions stock a number of veterinary ultrasound machines that are suitable for use in foetal sexing.
