Several technologies are used for the prediction of pork carcass composition in vivo. Among these technologies, the ultra-sound is the most currently used today. This paper describes the various fields of ultrasound technology application in animal production. The accuracy and the repeatability of ultrasound measurements and their various factors of variation are approached. Several packages for prediction of intramuscular fat percentage from ultrasound image are presented
