Project description
 

The omentum is an important abdominal organ for various surgical applications in both man and animal. In the dog, no details are known on lympatic ducts, the primo-vascular system nor the milky spots. Immunohistochemistry and in vivo staining will be used to gain information on the draining and immunoregulatory features of the canine omentum.
