RE: [AlpacaTalk] transrectal ultrasound

 

I am surprised to read of so many doing transrectal ultrasounds to confirm pregnancy. I bought my first animals from a large breeder. She had one of my girls ultrasounded to confirm her pregnancy by a vet other than her regular one who was out of town. Her regular vet usually did abdominal US but this one performed it rectally. She noticed blood on the probe when it was extracted.My girl aborted shortly after. I currently use a vet who has a large camelid practice. He has always done abdominal ultrasounds. What is the advantage to using the more invasive procedure?
