Ultrasound examination of pregnancy in the domestic goat (Capra hircus) ‒ a review
<b>Ultrasonography (USG) for embryo-foetal foetometry is widely used in the management of goat breeding. Tissues and organs of the embryo/foetus are measured and evaluated to assess gestational age. Transrectal, transabdominal and transvaginal probes are used to perform the ultrasound examinat...
