Abstract

Four adult baladi goats of both sexes (two males and two females) weighing about 25–35 kg and aging 1–1.5 years were used for the current study. Computed tomography (CT) scans and cross-sections of the thorax of goats were preformed, photographed, and compared with each other. The thorax was divided into three regions (cranial, middle, and caudal mediastinal regions). The shape and tomography of the thoracic organs were demonstrated. The anatomical features of soft and hard tissues of thorax were identified by both CT and cross-section images and denoted with the aid of anatomical texts. The purpose of this study was to produce an anatomic reference for computed tomography of the thorax of goat for use by radiologists, clinicians, and veterinary students.
