Prenatal ultrasound heating influences on fetal weight assessment of Oryctolagus cuniculus throughout pregnancy

The aim of this in vivo experimental study is to determine the association between ultrasound exposure time and Oryctolagus cuniculus’s fetal weight. A total of 14 pregnant does were exposed to ultrasound heating for 30, 60, and 90 minutes at each gestational stage. Meanwhile, another group of 4 pre...
