Abstract:
The study was conducted on local Assam goats for pregnancy diagnosis and to find the accuracy by using ultrasonic Doppler technique in field condition. Doppler ultrasonic technique was used to detect the movement of uterine arterial pulse, umbilical arterial pulse, foetal heartbeat and foetal movement. This technique is applicable in field condition as it is painless, noninvasive, easy to handle and also it could be carried anywhere comfortably. In the present study using this technique uterine arterial pulse, umbilical arterial pulse, foetal heart beat and foetal movement having different audible sounds were first detected on days 45, 50, 45 and 60 respectively, after breeding.
