By producing clear ultrasound images of soft tissues, including the reproductive tract, a cattle ultrasound highlights certain advantages over other methods. These advantages include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Earlier pregnancy detection<\/li>\n<li>Earlier identification of twins<\/li>\n<li>Earlier fetal gender identification<\/li>\n<li>More accurate fetal aging information<\/li>\n<li>Confirmations of fetal viability<\/li>\n<li>Improved ovarian and uterine structure evaluation<\/li>\n<li>More accurate information about the best insemination times<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Because vet equipment can be expensive (more on that below), owners tend to maximize the profitability of their ultrasound scanner by also using it for non-pregnancy applications. Through ultrasound, you can scan other regions of the animal to accurately diagnose and apply treatments to infections and damages of the mammary gland, lungs, liver, bladder, and kidneys. You can also better identify musculoskeletal and visceral structures.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is, many vet ultrasounds are equipped with the necessary features and technologies to ensure that the entire bovine family stays healthy.<\/p>\n<h2>What to Look for in a Bovine Ultrasound Machine<\/h2>\n<p>There are no\u00a0<em>rights<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0<em>wrongs<\/em>\u00a0when choosing veterinary ultrasound equipment, but you should know\u00a0<strong>what key features provide the most benefit<\/strong>\u00a0for specific needs and requirements. Additionally, because you\u2019ll be using the ultrasound to image bovine animals often in unpredictable on-farm conditions, it\u2019s helpful to filter your search by looking for veterinary ultrasounds with specific qualities, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Portable<\/li>\n<li>Water-proof<\/li>\n<li>Robust<\/li>\n<li>Comfortable<\/li>\n<li>Durable<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Also, you may need to carry the ultrasound to or around the farm, so it\u2019s recommended to choose an ultrasound with a long battery life.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of imaging, a quality bovine ultrasound unit will have good image quality so that you can better visualize soft tissues and the reproductive tract. Many bovine ultrasounds vary in terms of image resolution, the level of power output, size, whether or not it has Doppler (color or pulsed wave), and whether it has DICOM technology.<\/p>\n<p>As always, look for a bovine ultrasound that provides the size, weight, and image quality that you\u2019ll need.<\/p>\n<h3>Portability and Durability are Fundamental Features<\/h3>\n<p>Among the many different imaging features of a veterinary ultrasound for bovine use, perhaps the most important characteristics include portability and durability.<\/p>\n<p>In emergency situations when you have to rush to ailing cows, a lightweight and easy-to-carry ultrasound can be life saving, helping you get to the animal faster and more conveniently.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, a quality bovine ultrasound should be capable of bearing light abuse and disturbances. Due to the nature of the exam and the unpredictable behavior of the cattle, an ultrasound machine could easily be bumped, shaken, or dropped when dealing with an uncooperative animal.<\/p>\n<p>Although small handheld ultrasound machines are popular for this purpose, they are also limited. Handheld devices have a small screen, poorer image quality, and limited image optimization features. Larger portable ultrasound machines have better image quality, improved features, and more versatility for other veterinary needs such as diagnostic use or musculoskeletal imaging. For the most basic reproductive needs, a handheld or small portable ultrasound machine is typically a good choice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1310-0-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image\" data-index=\"1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-c67d20f9f743-1310\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/ultrasound-case-300x300.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/ultrasound-case.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/ultrasound-case-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/ultrasound-case-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/ultrasound-case-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" title=\"Ultrasound bovine\" alt=\"Ultrasound guide\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1310-0-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"2\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Getting the Right Bovine Ultrasound Transducer<\/h3>\n<p>Like the ultrasound machine itself, you should be wise in choosing the right ultrasound transducer (also known as a probe). The transducer must be durable and able to withstand the unpredictable nature of the cattle\u2019s rectum, but this isn\u2019t the only feature to examine when choosing the right bovine ultrasound transducer.<\/p>\n<p>For the reproduction of bovine animals, the usual choice is a linear transducer designed specifically for reproductive bovine ultrasound. This transducer has a very long cable and has a more streamlined design for easily inserting the probe in the cattle\u2019s rectum. Additionally, the probe is designed to operate at ideal frequencies for reproductive bovine imaging.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1310-0-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-c67d20f9f743-1310\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img \n\tsrc=\"https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/refurbished-chison-transducer-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/refurbished-chison-transducer-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/refurbished-chison-transducer-272x182.jpg 272w, https:\/\/stage.probomedical.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/09\/refurbished-chison-transducer.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" title=\"Bovine transducer\" alt=\"bovine probe\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-1310-0-0-4\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"4\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Chison L50617S-S Linear Rectal Transducer<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Ultrasound Costs<\/h2>\n<p>Although your specific needs should influence what type of bovine ultrasound is best for you, price is always an important, underlying factor.
