GAMBARAN ULTRASONOGRAFI TESTIS DAN EPIDIDIMIS KAMBING KACANG (Capra hircus) DI WILAYAH LAHAN KERING KEPULAUAN

This research aims to study testis and epididymis of dry land goat (Capra hircus) on B-mode ultrasound imaging. Twelve adult local male goats were examined normal testes ultrasonic appearances. real time scanner with a 7.5 MHz, linear array transducer was used evaluate the echotexture testicular parenchyma, mediastinum epididymis. The parenchyma represented uniformly homogenous moderately echogenic more highly echogenic. epididymal head appeared less but in structure, while tail heterogeneous than testis. Each structure reproductive organ, testis, can be differentiated using imaging, body difficult identify. It is concluded that as valuable diagnostic tool investigate health organ.
