https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/26020/siui-cts2100v Any experiences with this unit? We need a small ultrasound unit for basic first opinion stuff that will not take up too much room or be ruinously expensive!!!

We ended up with a Sonoscape machine from Celtic SMR. I&#39;d definitely go for a proper trolley if you ever need to move it round the practice</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/182274?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 28 Jul 2017 17:03:26 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:f470e954-d166-4ad2-a591-5f3ac3a5b395Bob Russell<p>Small animals, basic first opinion practice. Complex stuff is referred!</p> <p>Machine needs to be good enough to gain confidence with. A great relief to be able to identify most structures within the abdomen so seems a good starting point.</p> <p>Not trying to replace the imagers!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/182270?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 28 Jul 2017 15:42:11 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:4dda5244-85e8-4d03-a012-4450289d9502Cool<p>I think choosing a machine depends a lot on your scanning experience and ability and also how much scanning you intend to do. is it for large animal or small animal scanning?&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
