The macroscopic, radiographic and ultrasonographic anatomy of the carpal region of eight clinically normal camels (Camelus dromedarius) was determined with the help of a 7.5-MHz linear transducer. At the dorsal aspect of the carpus and distal radius, the extensor carpi radialis, extensor digitorum communis and extensor digitorum lateralis tendons were easily identified. The ulnaris lateralis tendon was observed laterally. The extensor carpi obliqus tendon was identified with difficulty. At the palmar aspect, the flexor carpi radialis, the flexor digitorum superficialis and the flexor digitorum profundus tendons were observed. Other soft structures examined include the lateral collateral ligament and the medial collateral ligament. Ultrasonographic findings correlated with gross anatomy in the dissected limbs. The results of the present study serve as reference data for ultrasonographic investigation of disorders of camel carpus.
借助7.5兆赫线性换能器，确定了8头临床正常单峰骆驼（ Camelus dromedarius）腕部区域的大体、放射学和超声解剖结构。在腕关节背侧和桡骨远端，容易识别桡侧腕伸肌、指总伸肌和指外侧伸肌腱。尺侧腕伸肌腱在外侧观察到。斜腕伸肌腱识别困难。在掌侧，观察到桡侧腕屈肌、指浅屈肌和指深屈肌腱。检查的其他软组织结构包括外侧副韧带和内侧副韧带。超声检查结果与解剖肢体的大体解剖结构相关。本研究结果可为骆驼腕关节疾病的超声检查提供参考数据。
