Advanced Diagnostics and Treatment

Ultrasound is widely used in reproductive health to monitor pregnancies, check for signs of uterine infections, or assess the condition of ovaries and the uterus in cows, sheep, and pigs. It’s a critical tool for early pregnancy diagnosis and managing breeding programs effectively.  X-rays can be used later in pregnancy to check for issues such as fetal position or abnormal development, which can be important for ensuring a safe delivery.

Regular fecal analysis is crucial for detecting internal parasites, such as worms, which can affect livestock health, growth rates, and overall productivity. Identifying and treating parasite infestations early reduces the risk of more serious health problems.

Early detection of BVD can help prevent the spread of this contagious disease, reducing the risk of herd outbreaks and ensuring the health and productivity of cattle.

Biopsies help diagnose diseases that are not easily detected through blood work or physical exams. They are crucial for identifying cancerous growths or other serious conditions early on, allowing for timely intervention.

Culture and sensitivity tests are essential for identifying bacterial infections and ensuring the correct antibiotics are used. This helps prevent antibiotic resistance and ensures that livestock recover quickly from infections.

Monitoring parasite loads ensures timely deworming and prevents excessive infestations that can impact growth rates, feed efficiency, and overall health of the animals.
