NO DETAILS NEED BE SPARED THANKS TO NEW ULTRASOUND TECHNOLOGY
Following on from the pregnancy-related topics that have been the focus of the previous couple of articles, this week the wonder of ultrasound will be explored.
USING ULTRASOUND TO CALCULATE GESTATIONAL AGE
A question stemming from the Vet Image Solutions Facebook page regarding gestational age motivated me to look at how reliable ultrasonography is for such an assessment.
FOCAL POINTS AND FRAME RATE
If you’ve attended one of our ultrasound courses, you’ll know how important it is to set a focal point – or multiple focal points – at the depth you are looking at. Wave fronts propagate out from your probe and act like the beam of a torch (that’s a ‘flashlight’ to our increasing number of American readers!), spreading out with increasing depth.
WHY GO MOBILE?
When scanning your animal of choice, it is important that you take into consideration the ease by which you are able to bring and set up your ultrasound scanner.
AN ACCEPTABLE EXCUSE TO RABBIT ON!

VACCINATION DOES NOT NEED TO BE VEXING
Whether you are a pet owner, a breeder, or a farmer, it is your responsibility to ensure that your animals are vaccinated, adhering to the current recommended guidelines. Vaccinations work by exposing the immune system to an infectious pathogen, in order to protect the individual from developing the disease later in life.
