Opis

A brief review is made in an attempt to deepen and improve the precocity of ultrasound diagnosis of goat pregnancy. The description of the principles on which the application of ultrasound is based on the parts of the female genital apparatus of goats with indication of the new methodologies that can be applied nowadays, as it is the case of the appreciation of the blood circulation in the development and implantation of the embryo and foetus. For this, different colorations are shown from the formation of germinative vesicles to the heartbeat in the early stages of gestation. The application of the Doppler system and the three-dimensional effect in ultrasound images can be of great help, not only in the diagnosis of gestation, but also in embryonic development. Images of gestations obtained in Murciano Granadinas goats in different days after insemination are shown, where it is possible to see from the appearance of liquids indicating gestation to the presence of organs in different stages of development.
