The Scan Pad is a touch-screen black and white ultrasound machine, most popular with small animal veterinarians, dog breeders and goat breeders.
This item cannot be purchased online. Due to the increasing number of lookalike counterfeit systems, this machine can only be purchased through first making contact so that we can connect you with a genuine, authorized distributor. Please contact us for pricing, letting us know your location and what species of animal you will be scanning.
Your probe (or transducer) is the most important part of your ultrasound system, so it’s important that you understand the differences before you choose what to buy. Our most popular choices available on the Scan Pad, in order of popularity:
Microconvex: Small footprint, with a frequency range of 3.5-7MHz, this probe covers almost all small animal applications. It’s ideal for pregnancy scanning dogs, cats, and even small goats.‘
Convex: With a larger scanning surface than the microconvex, some dog breeders prefer that they can cover a larger area in a single sweep. However, the lower frequency range (2.5-5MHz) means that images with the large convex probe will not be as high resolution as the microconvex can achieve. For larger animals, such as giant breed dogs or large breed goats or pigs, the convex transducer is the ideal choice as the lower frequencies can penetrate more deeply.
Linear Probe: The linear probe offers a very high frequency range of 6-9MHz. It’s the best choice for scanning close to the surface, such as tendon scanning, or abdominal scanning on slim dogs, cats, and scanning for eggs or follicles in reptiles, particularly snakes. The superior image quality achievable with a linear probe is striking, but it’s not a good option for general small animal pregnancy scanning and does not provide a sector image.
Linear Rectal Probe: Also high frequency (6-9MHz), this probe is for rectal examinations in cows and horses. Please note that internal scanning of animals is illegal on cows in the UK without a DEFRA-approved exemption (contact us for more information on this), and illegal on horses unless you are a qualified veterinarian.
