Preliminary Study To Develop A Virtual Comparative Atlas Of The Canine Nervous System

Abstract

Neuroanatomy encompassing one of the most important and complex topics in anatomy. An accurate interpretation and thorough understanding of the anatomy of this region could be helpful for students and clinicians. Therefore, this work aimed to perform an interactive atlas viewing software of the canine central nervous system using images acquired by osteology, gross dissection, and sections in different planes that could serve as anatomic references for this region. This atlas can help students during the teaching and learning process, providing them digital support that they can consult online at any time and in any way permanent while enrolled in the subject Veterinary Anatomy II. Thus, facilitating autonomy and activity, and promoting the leadership of students in monitoring their training process.
