In recent years plastination has begun to revolutionize the way in which human and veterinary gross anatomy can be presented students. The study reported here assessed efficacy of plastinated organs as teaching resources an innovative teaching/learning system. main objective was evaluate whether use improves quality learning anatomy. For this purpose, we used interdepartmental approach involving departments Veterinary Anatomy, Human Surgery, Education Development Research Methods. knowledge...
The objective of this work was to study the normal anatomy nasal cavity three species big cats (leopard, lion, and cheetah) compared domestic cat through use computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, rhinoscopy. Computed tomography allowed us clearly visualize entire bony cartilaginous framework that supports cavity. Magnetic imaging permitted better visualization soft tissues On other hand, rhinoscopy enabled direct mucosa vestibule cavity, which is very useful in diagnosis masses or...
The work vindicates the figure and professional career of veterinarian Mr. Cristóbal Hernández Roca (Mazarrón, 1921-Murcia, 2011) describes values clinical material that he donated to FVTUM during his lifetime, consisting a horseshoe bench, instruments related equine clinic articulated skeleton horse. objectives set were: 1) Complete biography Roca; 2) Make description material; 3) Formulate proposals value material. To achieve objectives, digital newspaper archives, books, doctoral theses,...
This study aims to develop three-dimensional printing models of the bony nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses big domestic cats using reconstructed computed tomographic images. work included an exhaustive osseous anatomy cat carried out through dissections, bone trepanations sectional anatomy. With use OsiriX viewer, DICOM images were postprocessed obtaining maximum-intensity projection volume-rendering reconstructions, which allowed for visualization structures sinuses, providing improvement...
This work aims to evaluate students’ opinions on the materials normally used in anatomy practical classes (fixed and plastinated) compared 3D anatomical prints. For this purpose, students of enrolled Degree Veterinary Medicine from University Murcia filled out a satisfaction survey about both kinds material. The rated fixed material with percentage close 100% plastinated higher than 75%. Regarding prints, obtained was consistently 50% except for two issues: identification vascular structures...
The purpose of this investigation was to define the magnetic resonance imaging anatomy rostral part equine head. 10 mm‐thick, Tl‐weighted images two isolated cadaver heads were obtained using a 1.5 Tesla magnet and body coil. MR compared corresponding frozen cross‐sections Relevant anatomic structures identified labeled at each level. resulting provided excellent detail oral nasal cavities, paranasal sinuses associated structures. Annotated from study are intended as reference for clinical studies
The QL block is a high-level locoregional anesthesia technique, which aims to provide analgesia the abdomen. Several approaches of have been studied find out one allows greater distribution injectate. aim this study compare traditional interfascial (IQL) with new latero-ventral approach (LVQL). We hypothesize that could be safer and easier perform, since injectate administered more superficially further away from vital structures. Our second objective assess whether higher volume (0.6 mL/kg)...
The minute anatomy of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in horses is poorly documented literature.To examine detail normal equine TMJ and relationship to adjacent structures.The was examined 12 equidae using dissections, synovial vascular injections frozen plastinated sections. Relevant structures were photographed.Rostral caudal compartments identified dorsal ventral pouches TMJ. Lateral ligaments attachments masticatory muscles over documented. Direct relationships between components ear...
The purpose of this investigation was to define the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging appearance brain and associated structures equine head. MR images were acquired in oblique dorsal (T2‐weighted), sagittal (Tl‐weighted), transverse planes using a magnet 1.5 Tesla human body coil. Relevant anatomic identified labeled at each level. resulting provided excellent detail cranioencephalic structures. Annotated from study are intended as reference for clinical studies head, specially diagnosis...
The quadratus lumborum (QL) block targets the fascial plane surrounding QL muscle providing abdominal somatic and visceral analgesia. extension of its analgesic effects is a subject research, as it could not cover areas cranial abdomen in dogs. This study assesses eight thawed canine cadavers, distribution high-volume injections (0.6 mL kg-1 mixture methylene blue iopromide) injected between psoas minor vertebral body L1. Anatomical features area interest were studied two cadavers. In...
In this study, six adult feline cadavers were examined using CTA, 3D printing, and casts injected with epoxy. The aorta, the portal vein, gallbladder of 3 separately a 50% mixture colored vulcanized latex hydrated barium sulfate as contrast medium to analyze by CT arterial, venous biliary systems. other three epoxy resin in hepatic veins, separately. After corrosion washing process, vascular obtained. images obtained showed system soft tissue window. For identification structures, prints...
Abstract Objective —To correlate anatomic features of the equine tarsus identified in plastinated sections with images obtained via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Animals —4 horses. Procedure —MRI (1.5-Tesla magnet) was performed on pelvic limbs 4 clinically normal horses following euthanasia. After imaging, tarsocrural joint spaces and vasculature were injected colored latex. Sagittal transverse tarsi to facilitate interpretation MR images. Results —Relevant structures labeled tissue...
The objective was to describe the normal ultrasonographic appearance of soft tissue and bony structures temporomandibular joint in Pure‐Bred Spanish horses using frozen plastinated sections performed as anatomical references. five healthy head specimens from 12 cadavers that were subjected euthanasia for reasons other than problems studied sonographically anatomically. An 11 MHz linear‐array transducer used obtain longitudinal images rostral, lateral, caudal approaches. For anatomic study, a...
Brachial plexus avulsions commonly occur in cats due to traumatic injuries involving the shoulder. Ultrasound may be an effective method for detecting injured nerves. Additional applications include characterization of brachial neoplasms and guidance anesthetic nerve blocks. Aims this study were describe ultrasonographic approaches normal appearance other major nerves thoracic limb cats. Eight feline cadavers used determine anatomic landmarks, obtain cross‐sectional images target nerves,...
In order to determine the temperature effect on axial muscle growth of sea bass, a stock larvae was subjected following incubation and cultivation temperatures, respectively: 15°C/ambient, 15/17°C, 17°C/ambient 17/17°C. all groups cross‐sectional area white red muscles number average fibres were quantified. Results showed that embryonic period, pre‐larval phase end metamorphosis accelerated at higher temperatures. During endogenous feeding took place by fibrillar hypertrophy, not influenced...
This study was conducted to validate an ultrasound-guided technique block the sciatic nerve in cats. An anatomical first carried out four feline cadavers evaluate feasibility of glutea (cranial and caudal), femoris poplitea ultrasonographical approaches for block. The results showed that approach optimal because region free vascular bony structures, needle easily visualised in-plane. Then, efficacy tested six healthy adult experimental A dose 2 mg/kg lidocaine 2% diluted saline a final...
