https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/nonclinical-discussions/22703/can-lay-people-pregnancy-scan-pets I&#39;ve just seen an ad for a mobile PD scanner for cats and dogs done by a la person. I know that lay people can PD scan livestock, but I didn&#39;t think they could do pets? Surely its diagnosing? en-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/145944?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 12 Sep 2013 22:37:27 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:ca621847-da5e-4022-a957-564afda597f7Craig McDonald<p>I know of a couple of lay people who PD dogs and cats they do it all the time and one is really good but that is diagnosing, if an RVN did it and told the client there were puppies if the puppies were absorbed they would complain about the RVN and could end badly couldn&#39;t it. Although Nurses can do the ultrasound show the picture to the vet and they can say it is and then you can tell the client can&#39;t you. Maybe one day the nurses will do more ultrasounds take photos and show the vet for a diagnosis like we do with x-rays</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/145942?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 12 Sep 2013 21:34:31 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:d7d68e86-de0b-4c09-8dda-c0b5d4f14fc3Sal the 1st<p>correct - because we are not lay people</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/145939?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 12 Sep 2013 21:01:45 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:3498ed99-2d27-4fa1-b6bd-985a7e0ffc18funkyfish<p>I bet we can&#39;t though.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/145938?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 12 Sep 2013 20:42:30 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:9788f6a7-6900-4680-8b37-2dac379bf4f6Sal the 1st<p>one of the breeders in my area does this - as far as I am aware there is nothing to stop anybody doing it?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
