Even the portable equipment presently available is still bulky to carry and handle, and preparation and examination in livestock houses and paddocks are laborious without assistance. We, therefore, developed a compact ultrasonic equipment for large animal practice.The features of the equipment developed were as follows :1. light in weight able to be carried and handled by only one veterinarian2. a backpack type allowing for morbility and avoidance of animal interference3. a 4 inch liquid crystal display (LCD) attached to the examiner's waist4. a control panel bearing important function keys on the monitor5. run on rechargeable batteries as well as on alternating AC currentThe operation of the equipment on tha farm was evaluated especially on easiness of handling and satisfactory results were obtained. The usufulness of the LCD was also compared with the conventional ultrasonic CRT display especially in terms of image quality of various organs in healthy and diseased cows. The image quality of LCD was satisfactory for clinical use, although a subtle decline in resolution of very small targets was discernible. This prototype compact equipment was considered to be quite useful in large animal practice.

即使是目前可用的便携式设备，携带和处理起来仍然笨重，在没有帮助的情况下，在牲畜舍和围场中进行准备和检查也很费力。为此，我们研制了一种小型化的大动物超声设备，其特点如下：1。重量轻，仅由一名兽医携带和处理。一种背包类型，允许发病和避免动物干扰3。一个4英寸的液晶显示器（LCD）连接到检查者的腰部4。显示器上带有重要功能键的控制面板5.使用可充电电池和交流电运行该农场设备的运行情况进行了评估，特别是操作的容易性，并获得了令人满意的结果。LCD显示器的实用性也与传统的超声CRT显示器进行了比较，特别是在健康和患病奶牛的各种器官的图像质量方面。LCD的图像质量对于临床使用是令人满意的，尽管非常小的目标的分辨率的细微下降是可辨别的。这种原型紧凑型设备被认为在大型动物实践中非常有用。
