Abstract:
The present study was performed to observe and examine the abdominal organs
structure and position by contrast X-ray, ultrasonography and Computed Tomography
(CT) and the function of the gastrointestinal tract to establish a basics diagnostic
aid to be for use by anatomists, radiologists, surgeons and veterinary students.
The stomach, intestine, liver, spleen, the caudal vena cava, portal vein and
gall bladder were examined by contrast X-ray, ultrasonography and CT scans in
twelve zaraibi goats aging 1-1.5 years and weighing 25-30 kg. The caudal vena
cava, portal vein and gall bladder diameters decreased from the 9th to the 12th
intercostal spaces through ultrasonographic imaging measurement. The fatty liver
infiltration determined by ultrasonography. The radiographic examined the structural
pattern of the abdominal organs by contrast X-ray, ultrasonography and computed
tomography and the function of the gastrointestinal tract to establish a basics
diagnostic aid. The obtained results cleared that contrast X-ray, ultrasonography
and CT were safe, practical and easily performed in goat. Both radiographic
and ultrasonographic procedures were complimentary in the evaluation of the
gastrointestinal tract, spleen and liver condition while CT scans was a superior
soft tissue differentiation over conventional X-ray techniques.
