Prediction of gestational age by ultrasonic fetometry in llamas (Lama glama) and alpacas (Lama pacos) [PDF]
Animal Reproduction Science, 2001 Fetal biparietal diameter (BPD) and thorax height (TH) were measured by ultrasound during intrauterine growth in pregnant llamas (Lama glama) and alpacas (Lama pacos). The goal was to establish representative curves that allows estimation of gestational age (GA) from real-time ultrasonic measurements of these fetal structures at any stage of gestation.
