49 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back

in growing bone is easily fractured

Physis

Sources of cancellous bone

Tibial tuberosity


Greater tubercle of humerus


Greater trochanter of femur


Wing of the ilium


only in horse and cat;between two parietal bones rostral to the occipital bone

Interparietal bone

forms the entire roof of the cranium in ox and pig

Frontal bone

splanchnic bone in the nose of pigs

Rostral bone

Complete in the horse and ruminants;incomplete in the carnivores but is completed by the orbital ligament

Bony orbit

only in horses;the ridge on the lateral surface of the face

Facial crest

in ruminants,the process on the lateral surface of the face

Facial tuberosity

the process of the frontal bone of horned ruminants that is enclosed by the horn

Cornual process

in ruminants,has been pushed to the lateral side of the skull by the frontal bone

Temporal fossa

dosal surface of the skull

Cornual process


Temporal fossa

ventral surface of the skull

Foramen orbitorotundum

in ruminant and pigs,is the joining of the round and orbital foramina of other species

Foramen orbitorotundum

Paranasal sinuses

Frontal sinus


Conchofrontal sinus

The largest paranasal sinus in cattle

Frontal sinus

in horse,the joined frontal and dorsal conchal sinus

Conchofrontal sinus

in the horse,the large opening between the caudal maxillary sinus and frontal sinus

Frontomaxillary opening

the direct continuation of the frontal sinus into the cornual process in horned ruminants

Cornual diverticulum

is the largest paranasal sinus in horses

Maxillary sinus

paper thin caudal extent of the maxillary sinus in the ruminants

Lacrimal bulla

the drilling of holes (trephine holes) into the paranasal sinus

Trephination

of the frontal sinus is often opened in dehorning and thus a possible entrance of inflammation (sinusitis)

Cornual diverticulum

inflammation of the paranasal sinuses; trephination may be used to drain the infection

Sinusitis

the rostral projection of the basihyoid bone into the tongue

Lingual process

The three foramina present in the atlas oh the horse

Intervertebral


Alar


Transverse

spout-shaped in ruminants,tooth-like in dogs

Dens

has trifid transverse process

Horse

this is often the landmark in reading radiographs of the thorax or back

Anticlinal vertebra

lumbar vertebrae numbers that articulates sometimes fused with each other in the horse

Lumbar 4, 5, and 6

unfused in horse and carnivorse

Spinous process

fused sacral spinal process in ruminants

Median sacral crest

last pair ribs in dogs

Floating ribs

in scapula it's a bony enlargement of the scapular spine found in the horse and pig

Spinal tuber

in scapula,in cat;caudal projection of acromion;distal end of spine can be called the acromion or hamate (L.hooked) process

Suprahamate process

in cat can be mistaken for a bone in the esophagus on lateral radiographs

Clavicle

the hole between the olecranon and the radial fossa found in the dog and sometimes in the pig

Supratrochlear fossa

opening in the medial epicondyle present only in cat;the median nerve and brachial vessels pass through it

Supracondylar foramen

a prominence in the horse intertubercular groove

Intermediate tubercle

divided into cranial and caudal parts in ungulates

Greater tubercle

fuses with radius in the horse and ruminants;therefore, these animals cannot supinate or pronate their forearm;not fused in carnivores and pigs, allowing pronation and supination

Ulna

the distal epiphysis of the horse ulna is fused with the radius and in essence become a part of the radius

Styloid process of ulna

the basic carpal number in the domestic animals

8

the 1st digit and the 1st metacarpal bone.The 1st digit is reduced in size having only 2 phlanges, the proximal and distal and one proximal sesamoid bone.

Dew claw

called hooked in the ox

Tuber coxae

pin bone in ox

Ischiatic tuberosity

the large prominence on the medial ridge of the patellar surface in the horse; the patella locks over this structure when the stay apparatus is in use

Trochlear tubercle

the 2 small sesamoid bones embedded in the heads of the gastrocnemius muscle of the carnivore

Fabellae

it should not be mistaken for a chip fracture in radiographs

Sesamoid bone of the popliteal tendon in carnivore

in the horse and ox attaches the medial patellar ligament with the patella

Patellar fibrocartilage
