Abstract

High-resolution computed tomography (CT) slices of the temporal bone of the Macaca mulatta monkey were performed and key anatomical landmarks were identified and labelled. The scans provided detailed anatomical definition of the monkey temporal bone and were considered a useful basis for studying the anatomy of a primate model.
