The objective of this study was to determine relationships between breast musclethickness measured by ultrasonography and meatiness and fatness characteristics inbroiler chickens. The experiment was conducted on 80 Ross 308 chickens aged 42 days.Breast muscle thickness was determined before and after slaughter, using an ultrasonicdiagnostic apparatus (Dramiński Animal Scanner with an abdominal, sector mechanicalprobe). The chickens were weighed and carcasses were subjected to detailed dissection.  In males breast muscle thickness measured before slaughter was found to bestatistically correlated with the weight of a carcass, meat and breast muscles as well aswith the percentage content of breast muscles in the carcass. The same measurementtaken after slaughter showed a high correlation with all analyzed traits except for thepercentage content of fat with skin in the carcass. The coefficients of correlation betweenthe analyzed traits, characterizing meatiness in females, were in most cases slightlyhigher than in males
