We are proud to be pioneers

Our story

BCF have been leaders in veterinary diagnostic imaging for over 30 years. Founders George Bowie, Alan Cole and Brian Fraser pioneered ultrasound for sheep pregnancy diagnosis.

Over the years we have continually listened to our customer's wishes and suggestions to make their working day easier. Over time our scanners have become smaller and lighter, so now you can wear them all day, making it easier to move around the farm and increase your productivity. Our designs have become more rugged and able to cope with the harsh environment of the farm, stable and veterinary clinic.

BCF were also the first to develop a water resistant, wearable bovine ultrasound scanner that allowed users to view the image on a head-mounted display. The BCF Easi-Scan bovine scanner is a global bestseller. We continue to innovate. 

All our equipment is designed and manufactured in-house or sourced from the world's leading healthcare and imaging providers. We are specialists in veterinary imaging - ultrasound, X-ray, CT, MRI and PACS. Whatever the species, small animal, equine and farm animals, we can help.

While born and bred in Scotland, BCF now have additional offices in Ireland, France, North America and most recently India. We also work with over 40 distributors across the world.

By working with BCF, you gain so much more than the best in veterinary diagnostic imaging equipment. We are dedicated to providing the best advice, learning and customer care and technical support.
