| description | <b>Aim: </b>The aim of this study was to create three-dimensional (3D) models of
each cervical vertebra with computed tomography (CT) images; to determine
the morphometric parameters of each cervical vertebra with manual and
digital measurement methods; to compare the accuracy between the two methods.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods: </b>The last five cervical vertebrae of four male thoroughbred
horses were used for morphometric analyses. All vertebrae were
scanned with 256-multidetector CT device. 3D reconstructed models were acquired
with 3D slicer software. Twenty-three morphometric parameters were
calculated on 3D models and manually by using a digital caliper.<p>
<b>Results:</b> Measurement methods*Cervical vertebra interaction term was found
statistically significant for height of vertebra, external and internal width of
the cranial articular process, width of the vertebral fossa, height of transverse
foramen, height of cranial and caudal vertebral notch, and width of the pedicle
(p<0.001). The length of the vertebral body was decreasing from third to seventh
cervical vertebra in both measurement methods but was not different
between measurement methods*cervical vertebra interaction term (p=0.685).
This study provided detailed comprehensive morphometric data to compare
cervical vertebrae among each other. The digital information gathered with 3D
approaches will give useful information for analysing anatomical variations.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> These morphometric data cannot only contribute to anatomic investigations
but also provide database for surgical and orthopaedic researches
or clinical interventions on this region of equine species. |
