Computed Tomography Imaging of the Topographical Anatomy of Canine Prostate

AIM: To investigate the topographical anatomy of canine prostate gland by computed tomography (CT) for diagnostic imaging purposes. МATERIAL AND METHODS: Seven clinically healthy mongrel male dogs at the age of 3−4 years and body weight of 10−15 kg were submitted to transverse computerized axial tomography (CAT) with cross section thickness of 5 mm. RESULTS: The CT image of canine prostate is v...

Topographical anatomy of the internal mammary lymphatics in the superior mediastinum and anterior mediastinal lymph nodes.

The lymphatics lying along the internal thoracic artery and vein, which are termed the "internal mammary lymphatics" (IML), were minutely dissected in 134 adult cadavers (80 males and 54 females, aged 27-94 years) in order to clarify the configuration of IML in the superior mediastinum. On the right side, IML frequently terminated at the brachiocephalic angle (BA) nodes and often at the nodes s...

Topographical anatomy and morphometry of the temporal bone of the macaque.

Based on the dissections of 24 bones of 12 macaques (Macaca mulatta), a systematic anatomical description was made and measurements of the chosen size parameters of the temporal bone as well as the skull were taken. Although there is a small mastoid process, the general arrangement of the macaque's temporal bone structures is very close to that which is observed in humans. The main differences ...

Topographical anatomy and measurements of selected parameters of the rat temporal bone.

On the basis of dissection of 24 bones of 12 black rats a systematic anatomical description was made and measurements of selected size parameters of the temporal bone were taken. Besides the main air space in the middle ear, the tympanic bulla, there are also additional air cells, namely the anterior and posterior epitympanic recesses, containing the head of the malleus and the body of the incu...
