الملخص EN

The present study was aimed to investigate the intraglandular duct system pattern in parotid salivary gland in both gazelle and sheep .

Eight parotid glands were used , three type of contras media were used, and some radiological parameters Kv.

80 , time exposure 10 msec with focus film distance 80 cm .

The radiological results showed that the parotid salivary gland in gazelle made up of five lobes , the intraglandular duct system appear as highly branched, and the main execratory duct formed inside the gland by union of five lobar duct , while in sheep the gland appear formed from three lobe and main duct formed from three lobar duct inside the gland
