Abstract :In this study, anatomical, morphometric and volumetric analyses of the mandible of Hamdani sheep were performed using computed tomography insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CT); and three-dimensional insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(3D); software. For this purpose, 16 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(eight males, eight females); Hamdani sheep heads were used. Images of these heads were taken on a 64-detector CT device applying 80 kV, 200 MA, 639 mGY, and 0.625 mm section thickness. Scan images of the mandible of each subject were converted into three-dimensional models using 3D software and reconstructed. Surface, volume and linear measurements insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(24); of the mandible were performed on the models. All the measurements were expressed as mean ± SD. The examinations determined that the mandible\`s volume and surface area values were more significant in males than females. Mandible length insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GOC-ID); was 169.01±0.74 mm, and its height insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GOV-CR); was 95.50±0.64 mm in males. In morphometric evaluations, statistically significant differences were observed between males and females in L2 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PC-ID);, L6 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GOC-FMN);, L14 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MTR-MH);, L19insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SI);, Volume and Surface area measurement parameters insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(P<0.05);. It is thought that the morphometric data obtained will be a reference in pathological conditions, taxonomy studies, and interventional surgical treatment applications to be performed on the site.
