Breeding for improved yield can reach a plateau when it becomes more difficult to keep progressing. Our clients who use imaging technologies are able to improve their genetic progress and have often reached the apex of their livestock breeding community. The imaging technologies we use have come out of biomedical research where there is an array of scanning technologies that have wide-ranging applications available. AbacusBio consultants have developed strategies to use these technologies in your breeding programme without breaking your bank. Our experience includes:

• development of breeding strategies to use imaging technologies optimally
• ultrasound technologies
• DXA and CT scanning technologies
• technique development
• image analysis technique and software development
