Ultrasonographic cervical evaluation in Lacaune ewes subjected to transcervical embryo collection.
Abstract: The degree of completeness and interdigitation of the cervical rings affects cervical passage, which is a necessary step for transcervical embryo collection. This study assessed the use of cervical ultrasonography (US) to select the most suitable animals for transcervical embryo collections. In conclusion, US cervical evaluation allows estimating the number of rings, and the ranking of animals by US cervical misalignment, making possible to select animals suitable for transcervical embryo collection.
