Simple Summary

Modern imaging diagnostic techniques, including computed tomography (CT) with anatomical sections, were used to evaluate the nasal cavity of Cory’s Shearwater (Calonectris borealis). These techniques effectively delineated the primary formations within the nasal cavity and its related formations. This investigation pioneered the use of anatomical sections and computerized tomography to describe the nasal cavity in Cory’s Shearwater.

Abstract

We conducted a detailed examination of the anterior cranial region of Cory’s Shearwater (Calonectris borealis), employing cutting-edge imaging techniques and computed tomography (CT). The fusion of CT images with anatomical cross-sectional data played a pivotal role in providing a thorough depiction of the components constituting the anterior cranial region of this species. The explication of these structures holds significant potential as an essential procedure for the prognosis and management of diverse pathologies impacting the nasal cavity of Cory’s Shearwater.
