BCF Technology has published a new clinical guide to the non-reproductive applications of ultrasound in farm animals.

Kimberly Palgrave BS BVM&S, created the booklet with the aim of helping veterinary surgeons understand the value in using ultrasound for more than reproduction purposes.

BCF says On farm ultrasound uses: Beyond pregnancy diagnosis provides key clinical descriptions and tips, along with normal and abnormal ultrasound images to show how ultrasound can aid in diagnosing various on-farm conditions you may be presented with, such as scanning the teat to detect stenosis, the umbilical area for an abscess, and even the thorax for help to diagnose BRD.

Kimberly said: "This clinical guide was created to help vets get more out of on farm ultrasound than just pregnancy diagnosis. There are a range of other uses for ultrasound on farm and this guide explains how to use your equipment for these applications. As always we are happy to receive feedback on any of our clinical materials."
