The Latest Innovations in Wireless Ultrasound  Dr. Carl Gold

EdgeLife’s wireless ultrasound, the size of your phone. 

An easy-to-use app reduces the training time, costs, and learning curve. Clients appreciate imaging as part of their patient's exam, without waiting for big equipment. A small, pocket-sized ultrasound doesn't frighten the animal, so exams can be done much quicker with better images. And showing your client the images makes explanations faster and simpler. An ultrasound cover or a glove during exams or procedures can avoid cross contamination and simplify the process to disinfect. Huge savings on maintenance cost. 

With a full range of models across the veterinary spectrum, EdgeLife continues to set the pace by compacting the features and image quality typically found in expensive portables and carts into an intuitive, compact, easy to use, far less expensive choice that quickly pays for itself.

Reproductive,MSK, Superficial,Internal, and other models.  We handle it all

Management evidence to improve production and reproduction KPI’s on your client’s dairies.  Dr. Jim Rhoades and Dr. Rafael Paiva

This informative session will review with one of the authors findings in three recently presented studies looking at embryo mortality, cow comfort, and test accuracy and the effect they have on both reproduction and milk production. Management decisions using available diagnostic tools are described and the impacts are measured when time budget of the cow and cow activities are altered. The studies show main KPI’s like milk production can be increased by increasing lying time and cow comfort.
