Ultrasonography of the rumen of dairy cows [PDF]
BMC Veterinary Research, 2013 This study describes the ultrasonographic findings of the rumen in 45 healthy dairy cows.The cows were scanned on both sides using a 5.0 MHz transducer. The dorsal visible margin of the rumen ran parallel to the lung from cranioventral to caudodorsal. It was furthest from the dorsal midline at the 9th intercostal space (48.3 ± 9.24 cm) and closest at ...

Dairy cow mortality. A review [PDF]
Veterinary Quarterly, 2006 We reviewed the literature to give an overview over the mortality among dairy cows in countries with a relatively intensive dairy production. A total of 19 studies focussing on dairy cow mortality were identified. Information about objectives, measures of mortality, sample sizes, study designs, causes of death and risk factors from these studies is ...
