What ultrasound unit do you use? We use an Easi-Scan Ultrasound unit. This is a battery operated unit that is worn on the user, making it extremely portable. The user wears goggles that contain the screen. The transrectal probe is able to scan to depths up to 8 cm.
How could bovine ultrasound be used in my program? Bovine ultrasound is primarily used for ovarian structure evaluation, identification of early pregnancy, fetal sexing, and assessment of pathologic conditions.
