Abstract:

The present study aimed to describe the normal anatomical structures of the digits and footpad of the camel using Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) as well as to provide an atlas of synchronized normal Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) and cross sectional anatomy of the digits in the camel. Sagittal, Dorsopalmar and Transverse MRI images of three isolated camel cadaver digits were obtained using "Hitachi T2-NT a magnet of 0.2 Tesla and T1 Weighted sequence". The MRI images were compared to corresponding dissect specimens and frozen cross-sections of the cadaver digits. Clinically relevant anatomic structures were identified and labeled at each level in the corresponding images (MRI and anatomic slices). The MRI images provided anatomical detail of the digits and foot of the camel. Transversal images provided excellent depiction of anatomical structures when compared to corresponding frozen cross-sections. MRI images of the current study would serve as an initial reference for normal anatomy and clinical imaging studies of the camel digits and foot that can be used by radiologist, clinicians, surgeons or for research propose in camel lameness.
