Abstract

Radiographs were made of the skull of a 1.5‐year‐old and a 3‐year‐old camel for the purpose of assessing and describing the radiographic anatomy. Radiographic anatomy was compared with results from gross dissection of 5 additional camel specimens. Camel skull anatomy was related to that of the horse and ox. Obvious differences were found. These include in the camel, large occipital condules, a notched foramen magnum, an intracranial projection for the interparietal bone, and small paranasal sinuses. Other minor differences are detailed in the text.
