Computer-aided three dimensional morphometric measurements of cervical vertebrae variations compared with manual measurements in throughbred horses

Öz:
Aim: The aim of this study was to create three-dimensional (3D) models of each cervical vertebra with computed tomography (CT) images; to determine the morphometric parameters of each cervical vertebra with manual and digital measurement methods; to compare the accuracy between the two methods. Materials and Methods: The last five cervical vertebrae of four male thoroughbred horses were used for morphometric analyses. All vertebrae were scanned with 256-multidetector CT device. 3D reconstructed models were acquired with 3D slicer software. Twenty-three morphometric parameters were calculated on 3D models and manually by using a digital caliper. Results: Measurement methods*Cervical vertebra interaction term was found statistically significant for height of vertebra, external and internal width of the cranial articular process, width of the vertebral fossa, height of transverse foramen, height of cranial and caudal vertebral notch, and width of the pedicle (p<0.001). The length of the vertebral body was decreasing from third to seventh cervical vertebra in both measurement methods but was not different between measurement methods*cervical vertebra interaction term (p=0.685). This study provided detailed comprehensive morphometric data to compare cervical vertebrae among each other. The digital information gathered with 3D approaches will give useful information for analysing anatomical variations. Conclusion: These morphometric data cannot only contribute to anatomic investigations but also provide database for surgical and orthopaedic researches or clinical interventions on this region of equine species.

Safkan atlarda boyun omurları varyasyonlarının bilgisayar destekli üç boyutlu morfometrik ölçümlerinin manuel ölçümlerle karşılaştırılması

Öz:
Amaç: Çalışmada, bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) görüntüleri ile her bir servikal omurun üç boyutlu (3B) modellerini oluşturmak; manuel ve dijital ölçüm yöntemleri ile her servikal vertebranın morfometrik parametrelerini belirlemek ve iki yöntem arasındaki doğruluğu karşılaştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Morfometrik analizler için dört erkek safkan atın son beş boyun omurları kullanıldı. Tüm omurlar 256 multidetektörlü BT cihazı ile tarandı. 3D Slicer yazılımı ile 3B rekonstrüksiyon modeller elde edildi. Yirmi üç morfometrik parametre, 3B modeller ve dijital kumpas kullanılarak manuel olarak hesaplandı. Bulgular: Ölçüm yöntemleri*servikal omur etkileşim terimi, omur yüksekliği, processus articularis cranialis’in dış ve iç genişliği, fossa vertebralis’in genişliği, foramen transversalis’in yüksekliği, incisura vertebralis’lerin yüksekliği ve pedikül genişliği için istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p<0,001). Omur gövdesinin uzunluğu her iki ölçüm yönteminde de üçüncü servikal omurdan yedinci servikal omura azalıyordu, ancak ölçüm yöntemi*servikal omur etkileşim terimi arasında fark bulunmadı (p=0,685). Bu çalışma ile, servikal omurların kendi aralarında karşılaştırması yapılarak ayrıntılı morfometrik veriler sağlandı. 3B yaklaşımlarla toplanan dijital veriler, anatomik varyasyonları analiz etmek için faydalı bilgiler verecektir
