Femoral angle, femur length, and hip width were measured in radiographs of 92 intact domestic cats, males and females of mixed breed from the Center for Zoonosis Control of the Federal District. The animals showed no trauma, orthopedic diseases or angular deformities and had closed physeal lines. Accordingly, we measured aLPFA (anatomical lateral proximal femoral angle, aLDFA (anatomical lateral distal femoral angle), mLPFA (mechanical lateral proximal femoral angle), mLDFA (mechanical lateral distal femoral angle), IA (femoral inclination angle), FL (femur length) and HW (hip width) using ventrodorsal radiographs, with both hindlimbs in a single exposure to an X-ray beam centered on the hip.
Medidas dos ângulos femoraisToda honra e toda a glória seja dada a Deus, que doa os talentos a cada um de nós, esperando que possamos desenvolvê-los.
ABSTRACTThis study performed the radiographic measurement of femoral angles and linear
A meticulous study from Schuelter et al. 1 showed how the cranial skeletal anatomy of brachycephalic cats is distorted, impacting the tear drainage system. 2 Computed tomographic dacryocystography (CT-DCG) is the modality of choice for nasolacrimal duct (NLD) imaging and accurate diagnosis of pathological conditions such as
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
