“…The remaining three rabbits were fed rabbit chow supplemented with 1% ͑w/w͒ cholesterol ͑Harlan Teklad, Indianapolis, Indiana͒ daily for eight weeks to induce atherosclerotic lesions. 64 One additional normal-fed and one additional cholesterol-fed rabbit ͑approximately 13 weeks old͒ were used to obtain the first set of test samples ͑12 in total͒ for validation of the established classification models. Two more normal-diet and two more cholesterol-fed rabbits ͑approximately 13 weeks old͒ were used to obtain the second set of test samples ͑56 in total͒ to further validate the classification models.…”

Atherosclerotic and normal rabbit aorta samples show a marked difference in chemical composition governed by the water, lipid, and protein content. The strongly overlapping infrared absorption features of the different constituents, and the complexity of the tissue matrix, render tissue classification by direct evaluation of molecular spectroscopic characteristics obtained from IR reflectance or attenuated total reflectance (ATR) measurements virtually impossible. We apply multivariate analysis and classification techniques based on partial least squares regression (PLS) and linear discriminant analysis to IR spectroscopic data obtained by IR-ATR measurements and reflectance IR microscopy with high predictive accuracy during blind testing. Training data are collected from atherosclerotic and normal rabbit aorta samples. These results demonstrate the potential of IR spectroscopy combined with multivariate classification strategies for the in-vitro identification of normal and atherosclerotic aorta tissue. The prospect for future in-vivo measurement concepts is also discussed.

The aim of the study was to investigate the morphology and morphometry of ramifications of the aortic arch in domestic shorthair cats in relation to the sex of the animals. The morphological study was performed on 61 hearts of adult domestic shorthair cats of both sexes, preserved in the 10% solution of formalin. Measurements of the area of openings of basic branches and distances between them were performed. In cats we can observe a double type of direct ramification of the aortic arch: the brachiocephalic trunk and the left subclavian artery. In all studied cases, the surface area of the ostium of the brachiocephalic trunk (SABT) was greater 4.94 ± 1.35 mm2 than the surface area of the ostium of the left subclavian artery (SALSA) 2.38 ± 0.88 mm2. The average difference between the opening area of the above vessels (r) amounted to 2.56 mm2. In the studied group of cats, the distance between the openings (d) varied between 0.5 and 4.37 mm. In the post hoc comparison of the mean values no statistically significant differences were found between the population of males and females. Fundamental changes in the structure of openings were found in two females. The first one concerned a secondary division of the brachiocephalic trunk opening and the second one – a secondary division of the opening of the left subclavian artery in the area of their parting from the aortic arch. CT angiography or MRI angiography is the method of choice for diagnosis of vascular disorders or malformations. The knowledge of the aortic arch morphology in various species of animals is a prerequisite for a correct assessment of the results of imaging tests.

“…Deep surgical anaesthesia was performed by using Xylazine Hydrochloride (Xylaxin ® , Indian Immunologicals Ltd., India) at a dose of 10mg/kg b.w. and ketamine Hydrochloride (G-ketemine ® , Gonoshasthaya Pharmaceuticals Ltd., Bangladesh) at a dose of 40mg/kg BW intramuscularly followed by the method described earlier [7] . After general anaesthesia, rabbits were positioned dorso-ventraly for dissection.…”

The aim of the present study was to investigate the arrangement and major vascular variation of abdominal aorta in NZW rabbit. A total of 28 healthy adult rabbits (14 males and 14 females) with an average (1.3 ± 0.5kg) body weight were used in this study. Deep surgical anaesthesia was done by using combination of xylazine and ketamine at the doses of 10mg/kg and 40mg/kg body weight respectively, and was sacrificed by bleeding through the right ventricle of the heart. Cannulation of the thoracic aorta and stained latex (added with ammonium water and red carmine stain) injection were performed, followed by 10% neutral buffered formalin. Asymmetry of the even branches with their distribution and the way of departure of the arteries from the abdominal aorta were observed. However, double pair ovarian arteries were found in a single animal. The diameter of the caudal mesenteric artery showed significant (p?0.05) difference between male and female. In case of male and female, the variability of the origin (number and level of origin) of testicular, ovarian and profound iliac circumflex arteries was also observed.
