Abstract
The overall objective of the three computed tomographic (CT) studies included in this manuscript-style thesis was to provide information which could improve clinical decisions regarding the staging and radiation treatment of pelvic limb and caudal abdominal tumours in dogs. Specific objectives of this body of research were to describe the lymphatic drainage of the canine pelvic limb, characteristics of normal popliteal lymph nodes, and the location and CT characteristics of presumed normal medial iliac lymph nodes.
