Abstract:
The contributions of ultrasonography in the recent years have been increases tremendously in the field of animal reproduction. The ultrasound adds new perspectives to our general understanding of reproductive biology. The trans-rectal real time B- mode ultrasonography is a non- invasive research tool use in bovine reproduction. It helps in assessment of follicular dynamics during estrous cycle by the research scholar to the early pregnancy diagnosis by the bovine practitioners. The application of this technology includes the understanding of follicular dynamics, detection of early pregnancy, fetal viability, early diagnosis of reproductive tract abnormality, identification of fetal sex, diagnosis and monitoring of ovarian cysts during treatment as well as ultrasound guided reproductive methods. The involvement of ultrasonography with novel or pre-existing reproductive technology further increases the reproductive efficiency. Improvement of extension instruction projects to prepare veterinarian to involve ultrasound for routine assessments is a basic advance toward fast execution of this innovation into the dairy business. In this review, the writing relating to the utilization of ultrasonography in bovine reproduction is surveyed. The applications and restrictions of ultrasonography are featured.
