In this paper, we attempted to elaborate on an atlas of the head of the rhinoceros iguana, applying modern imaging techniques such as CT and MRI. Furthermore, by combining the images acquired through these techniques with macroscopic anatomical sections, we obtained an adequate description of the relevant structures that form the head of this species. This anatomical information could provide a valuable diagnostic tool for the clinical evaluation of different pathological processes in iguanas such as abscesses and osteodystrophy secondary to nutrient imbalances, skull malformations, fractures, and neoplasia.
在本文中,我们尝试运用CT和MRI等现代成像技术,详细阐述犀牛鬣蜥头部图谱。此外,通过将这些技术获取的图像与宏观解剖切片相结合,我们对构成该物种头部的相关结构有了充分的描述。这些解剖学信息可为鬣蜥不同病理过程的临床评估提供有价值的诊断工具,如营养失衡继发的脓肿和骨营养不良、颅骨畸形、骨折及肿瘤。
