Cattle ultrasound scanning equipment in Ireland has just taken a giant leap forward with the introduction of the latest Ibex scanner .Ultrasound is a wonderful diagnostic tool .It is most commonly used in cattle to detect pregnancy or problems with the reproductive system and in horses it can also be used to scan tendons for injury.The nature of these examinations expose the scanner to many circumstances which can be dangerous for electronic equipment.Dung,moisture,impact with hard surfaces,condensation ,dust and even occasionally owner abuse are all factors that contribute to a shortened lifespan of scanning machines.Vetequip Ltd in Cork are now the official agents for the Ibex Lite and Ibex Pro ultrasound machines from E.I Medical in Colorado U.S.A.These units are built exclusively for the Scanning Professional and are as tough as the job .They feature:
Ruggedised Construction
Lightweight goggles
Digital Imaging
Portable and lightweight
Intuitive and easy to use
Image storage
Economical
Long battery life

Dr Paul Brazzell proved to be an excellent speaker.He combined his unique ability to impart knowledge and undoubted enthusiasm for the topic with a measure of humour and entertainment that kept the capacity attendance interested to the very end.Paul enjoyed his trip to Ireland and hopes to return on a regular basis even if it is only to keep an eye on his proteges!!
Clients really appreciate if when there is a problem with their animal they can see something illustrated which will explain the condition.It is a common perception that microscope images are difficult to project or review on a T.V or computer.This is not the case as relatively in-expensive adapters are now available which make the job very simple.
The requirements are
Binocular or trinocular microscope
Digital Camera adapter
or
CCTV adapter
or
Minicam adapter for analogue output to a TV
Digital cameras with screw thread lens housing such as Nikon Coolpix are recommended as non threaded units will need a linkarm.
This is a real problem area for the veterinary profession as a wrong decision now will be a source of anxiety and anger for as long as the equipment is in your practise.
So how do you make the choice?.
