Ultrasonography as an important tool for the development and application of reproductive technologies in non-domestic species.
Theriogenology 2000 January 2
Ultrasound imaging in reproductive sciences offers new opportunities regarding optimization of the induction of the sexual cycle and ovulation, superovulation regimes, contraception programs, semen collection and testicular sperm extraction techniques, ovum pick up and ovarian transplantation procedures, as well as the application of artificial insemination, embryo collection and transfer. In non-domestic species, most of which lack basic data, ultrasonography is an ideal tool to study reproductive biology in both captive and wild populations. The use of this imaging modality led us to develop new, or modify established, reproductive technologies. Ultrasonography has been an integral part of over 200 assisted reproduction procedures in 17 mammalian species performed by our research team between 1992 and 1999. These procedures included the initial characterization of sexual cycles, hormonal cycle induction, semen collection by electroejaculation or manual stimulation, non-surgical artificial insemination (AI), non-surgical embryo transfer and temporary hormonal contraception. For these investigations, a variety of newly developed equipment was applied and species-specific hormonal treatments designed. We used several commercial and customized ultrasound systems with a variety of technical features. Some relevant improvements of these applications will be described and the role of ultrasonography elucidated to.
