Ultrasound Pregnancy Scanning
An important reproductive management technique used to determine the pregnancy status of cows or heifers through the use of ultrasound imaging.
We utilise extremely portable ultrasound equipment to create real-time images of the cow’s reproductive organs, allowing for early detection of pregnancy and the assessment of foetal development.
Foetal Aging
Ultrasound scanning can detect pregnancy as early as 28 days after breeding, much earlier than traditional manual palpation or rectal examination, which may not be reliable until around 45-60 days.
Foetal Aging refers to estimating the age of a developing bovine foetus during pregnancy. Accurate foetal aging is important for better management of the cow and the developing calf, as it helps determine expected calving dates and enables adjustments to nutrition and healthcare as needed.
Our team can give an accurate foetal age from 28 – 110 days in calf.
