description | <b>Aim:</b> Aim of this research was to investigate the capability
of Cavalieri principle (unbiased and efficient method using
to volume measurement) for the in vitro estimation of the
volume of the dog.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> Five male adult dog testes were
used. First, testis volumes were measureament by water
displacement method (Archimedes principle), then cavalieri
method used to estimate the volume of same testis. Afterwards,
the results of these methods were compared.<p>
<b>Results:</b> The mean volume of the left and right testis together
was found 18.72 cm<sup>3</sup> according to Archimedean principle
and 18.25 cm<sup>3</sup> according to Cavalieri principles. Statistical
difference was not found (p<0.05).<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> The direct volume measurement method “water
displacement” could not be Performed on the small
testis because of the “capillary effect”. However Cavalieri
principle runs free from the shape and orientation of the
material. The study showed that Cavalieri principle was capable
to measure the testis volume. |
