Free Education and Support
We understand that some first time users may not be familiar with the use & function of an ultrasound scanner. Our ultrasounds are fairly simple to use, very functional and down right fun. However in an effort to bridge the gap of knowledge that may exist we provide additional support for users to insure success.
Included in the purchase of each ultrasound is 2 hours of free support from Dr Steve Purdy, Director of the Camelid Studies Program at U Mass Amherst. Dr Purdy will provide support via the phone or on-site at the Camelid Studies farm at U Mass in Hadley, MA. This support is scheduled with Dr Purdy by the user and additional support is available if desired for a fee.

FAQs & Tips
What’s the difference between the different probes?

Higher MHz - more clear, less depth
Lower MHz - less clear, more depth
Waterproof probes allow the user to do transrectal scans by inserting the probe with the hand on larger species such as cows and horses.
Rectal probes will detect a pregnancy sooner however one needs to know how to use a rectal probe to avoid injury
Transabdominal – from left side from 40 to 80 days of gestation, right side after 80 days of gestation

Use Iso alcohol for transabdominal ultrasounds instead of gel as transfer medium. The alcohol fills the voids in the hair shafts and provides better transmittance.
