Vet Image Solutions and Signet Breeding Services (part of EBLEX) are pleased to announce a new partnership, with the aim of using ultrasound to measure fat and muscle depth to "help producers improve carcase quality by more accurately measuring muscle and fat deposition in live animals" (Meat Info).

Scanning both sheep and beef cattle, the clarity of the Vet Image Solutions ultrasound machines will allow Signet to improve its service and develop its research further.
