Abstract :This study was carried out to determine the morphometric characteristics of the glandula lacrimalis in Siirt-colored Mohair goats and Romanov sheep using computed tomography (CT) images and to analyze the differences between sexes and species. CT images of the glandula lacrimalis of ten male and ten female Siirt-colored Mohair goats and ten male and ten female Romanov sheep were used in the study. Morphometric measurements were taken from transversal, sagittal and dorsal sections of the right and left glandula lacrimalis in both male and female animals. Morphometric values were statistically analyzed. As a result of the study, there was no sex-related difference in morphometric measurement parameters in the Romanov sheep breed. In Siirt-colored mohair goats, statistical differences were observed in terms of TY and DU values depending on sex. Statistical similarities and differences were determined between the two species in terms of morphometric parameters. In conclusion, statistical differences in the measurement parameters of glandula lacrimalis of adult Siirt-colored Mohair goats and Romanov sheep between sexes and species were determined using computed tomography images.
