  • Title: CT sialography in the dog - a cadaver study.
    Author: Kneissl S, Weidner S, Probst A.
    Journal: Anat Histol Embryol; 2011 Dec; 40(6):397-401. PubMed ID: 21539598.
    Abstract:
    To document computed tomographic topography of salivary glands and their ducts in dogs, a retrograde filling with methylcellulose and iodinated contrast medium was performed in three cadavers. Demarcation of the parotid, mandibular and zygomatic glands was achieved. Surrounding structures were imaged without beam hardening artefacts. Landmarks for the parotid, mandibular and zygomatic glands were the external acoustic canal, the mandibular angle and the pterygopalatine fossa, respectively. Sialograms of the parotid, mandibular and zygomatic ducts were achieved, whereas neither the sublingual glands nor their ducts could be contrasted. The images provide a three-dimensional visualization of the salivary glands and their ducts.
