We aimed to study the association between CL characteristics assessed by color-Doppler ultrasonography (Doppler-US) at the time of embryo transfer (ET) and pregnancy rate (P/ET) in beef recipients. Estrous cycles of crossbred beef recipients were synchronized for timed-ET. On the day of ET (Day 7), CL area, proportion of luteal blood perfusion (BP), and the relationship between the largest dominant follicle (DF) and CL (ipsilateral or contralateral) were determined.

Article Synopsis
  • * Recent findings show that Doppler imaging accurately evaluates corpus luteum function and early pregnancy diagnosis between days 20 and 22.
  • * Strategies utilizing Doppler imaging can enhance reproductive efficiency by reducing the interval between embryo transfers and improving recipient selection based on luteal blood perfusion, potentially boosting fertility outcomes.
