To Scan:
Apply ultrasound gel to your probe.
The easiest method for pregnancy detection is to scan along the midline of the female dog or cat, starting at the bladder (nearest the tail) and working up to the liver.
Adjust the image controls, so that the area of interest is in the middle of the screen.
Scan in the nipple line up to the liver and spleen.
Return down to the bladder dipping the probe, angling to the left, then repeat the sweep angling and dipping to the right.
Only after completing a methodical survey of the abdomen, can you be sure that you have not missed anything.

Tips: Both the tablet and transducer will likely come with protective covers. You do not need to remove the clear screen protector cover to use your tablet, but you must remove the protective strip from the probe to be able to scan.

Ultrasound gel is an acoustic couplant, not just a lubricant. It is not advisable to substitute ultrasonic gel for any other type of gel or cream. In a pinch, the best substitute for ultrasound gel is water, as it has a similar acoustic impedance to ultrasound gel and soft tissue. It is not recommended to use alcohol as it will damage your probe head over time.

Ultrasound waves do not pass-through air. Air blocks the signal and as hair and fur trap air bubbles it will interfere with the image. It is ideal to shave the area to ensure direct contact between the ultrasound probe and skin (and of course, gel) unless there is little hair/fur interfering with the image, in which case, shaving is unnecessary. Ultrasound gel eliminates air between the probe and the skin surface. Remember, air is the enemy! If you don't want to shave, do your best to wet down the hair/fur with water/gel and separate it so that the probe has good contact with the skin.

Playing with the controls is the best way to learn and remember they will always reset back to default once you turn off your machine. Remember, you can freeze an image while scanning to stop transmitting ultrasound waves to allow you to focus on the image and adjust settings. Try to adjust the gain, the depth and frequency to ensure you make the most of what you are seeing.
For small and medium sized dogs, cats and goats.
