Comparison of ultrasonographic images retrieved using two different probes (mechanical sector and linear ones) and macroscopic features of bovine reproductive organs: Biometric studies [İki farklı prob (mekanik sektör ve doğrusal olanlar) kullanarak alınan ultrasonografik görüntülerin karşılaştırılması ve sığır üreme organlarının makroskobik özellikleri: Biyometrik çalışmalar]

Objective of the study was to assess whether there are some differences in biometric measurements of the reproductive organs using mechanical sector or linear array ultrasound probe in comparison to the macroscopic measurements. the results revealed no significant differences between ultrasonographic (usg) images in comparison to macroscopic features. high correlations between post - mortem biometric measurements of examined structures and monitored via usg in conscious animals using both probes were found (p<0.001). in conclusion,both usg systems can be effectively used as clinical and research tools in the field of examination of bovine reproductive tract status. © 2017,veteriner fakultesi dergisi. all rights reserved.
