The Saimiri sciureus represents a valuable resource for biomedical research, due to its large number on primate centers and similarity to human anatomy and physiology. The aim of this study was to apply the method proposed by Buchanan & Bücheler in healthy squirrel monkeys (S. sciureus) and determine by radiographic examination, the average value of the vertebral heart size (VHS) for the specie.
Laterolateral left (LLL), laterolateral right (LLR), ventrodorsal (VD), and dorsoventral (DV) projections were used for radiographic examinations to evaluate the heart silhouette of S. sciureus.
There was no statistical difference between the projections LLL and LLR, or VD and DV, and between males and females, so measurements in the four radiographic projections were not performed.
The values obtained in VHS of S. sciureus showed up species specific.
由于松鼠猴在灵长类动物中心数量众多,且在解剖学和生理学上与人类相似,因此松鼠猴是生物医学研究的宝贵资源。本研究的目的是将布坎南和比克勒提出的方法应用于健康的松鼠猴,并通过放射学检查确定该物种的心脏椎体大小(VHS)的平均值。
采用左侧位(LLL)、右侧位(LLR)、腹背位(VD)和背腹位(DV)投照进行放射学检查,以评估松鼠猴的心脏轮廓。
LLL和LLR投照之间、VD和DV投照之间以及雄性和雌性之间均无统计学差异,因此未对四种放射学投照进行测量。
松鼠猴VHS获得的值显示出物种特异性。
