Cranial Investigations of Crested Porcupine () by Anatomical Cross-Sections and Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

This paper aimed to describe an atlas of the crested porcupine () head by applying advanced imaging techniques such as MRI. Furthermore, by combining the images acquired through these techniques with anatomical sections, we obtained an adequate description of the structures that form the CNS and associated structures of this species. This anatomical information could serve as a valuable diagnostic tool for the clinical evaluation of different pathological processes in porcupines, such as abscesses, skull malformations, fractures, and neoplasia.
