Specs & features.
This equipment typically features an ergonomic, tubular probe attached to an elongated handle, allowing the operator to scan an animal comfortably while keeping a safe distance. The device emits an electromagnetic field; when the probe passes over metallic objects in the rumen or reticulum (such as in cattle), it immediately alerts the user. This quick scanning process acts as a vital preliminary screening tool, limiting the need for costly or stressful X-rays.
