The idea is the morphological comparison of lower cervical vertebrae of dogs. At first I want to compare if third cervical vertebrae has similar shape in different breeds and if fourth vertebrae has similar shape in different breeds, and so on. In second test we want to compare the different vertebrae of all dogs among each other to question the uniformity of the lower cervical vertebrae which is common opinion in literature. Now I am looking for references dealing with vertebral morphometrics and the basics of 3D lanmark use. I would be very very glad if you could send some useful information to me. Thanks in advance for answering!
