After the success of the first edition of the book “The oestrous cycle of the cow, photographic diagnosis”, which includes a detailed comparison of the uterine and ovarian structures in all the phases of cycle, the author has added ultrasound scans. He makes the interpretation of these diagnostic tests easier thanks to Rights available. real images observed on ultrasound examination.
