Sažetak
The purpose of this study was to identify anatomic structures of computed tomography images of the cat thoracic region for use by veterinary radiologists, clinicians and surgeons. The thoraxes of four cats were scanned using high-resolution imaging with a slice thickness of 15 mm. Each cat was then euthanized and placed in a freezer at -18 °C. Frozen cats were sectioned as close as possible to the C.T. slices. Each C.T. image was studied and compared with its corresponding anatomic section to assist in the accurate identification of specific structures. Thoracic skeleton of the cat was used as reference model. Finally, relevant structures and landmarks were identified and labelled in the C.T. images.
