Transverse sectional anatomy of the pes region of Zebu bulls. Views A and D Gross and Views B-C and E–F CT sections. Views A–C represent the transverse sections at a level of 5 cm below the proximal extremity of the metatarsal bones (gross, bone windows, and soft windows). Views D-F represent the transverse sections at a level of 7.5 cm below the proximal extremity of the metatarsal bones (gross, bone windows, and soft windows). To show the (CMC) central marrow cavity; (DDE) deep digital extensor muscle; (DDFT) deep digital flexor tendon; (EDL) extensor digital lateral muscle; (FMB) fused metatarsal bones; (IOM) interosseous muscle; (LED) long extensor digital muscle; (SDFT) superficial digital flexor tendon
