Resumen

Los insultos vasculares afectan directamente la producción y la cualidad de las células espermáticas, por lo tanto, el diagnóstico temprano de estas alteraciones es de extrema importancia para evitar daños irreversibles en la reproducción. En este sentido, la ultrasonografía Doppler ha sido empleada como un método eficaz en el diagnóstico precoz de afecciones reproductivas relacionadas con disturbios en la perfusión sanguínea testícular. Además, este metodo posibilita el acompañamiento de tratamientos en curso, con el fin de mejorar resultados terapéuticos y obtener una predicción de la fertilidad de los garañones. En hombres, ya es um método empleado para el diagnóstico de disturbios de la fertilidad, mientras, en veterinaria los relatos aún son escasos y el uso por andrólogos en el campo equino para este fin, es esporádico. El objetivo de esta revisión es presentar los principios de la ultrasonografía Doppler y las ventajas para la andrología equina, con la finalidad de ampliar los conocimientos sobre esta técnica y facilitar el diagnóstico de afecciones durante los examenes reproductivos de los garañones.
