The aim of the research was to study the topography of the liver and to image on computed tomography of the white New Zealand rabbit. We used ten rabbit cadavers. We obtained sagittal frozen cuts. At the level of the plane 10 mm to the left, the left medial lobe was cranial to the left lateral lobe. Caudally were the spleen, the left kidney and parts of the small and large intestines. At the level of the plane 20 mm to the left, the left lateral lobe touched caudally the stomach fundus and body, the papillary process was dorsal to the stomach fundus. At the level of the plane 10 mm to the right, the right lobe was cranially situated to the other lobes. Between the right lobe and caudate lobe were fundus and body of the stomach. Caudate process was caudal to the fundus of the stomach and dorsal to the cranial part of duodenum and ascending colon. It had anatomical contact with the right kidney. Papillary process covered the dorsal part of the stomach. At the level of the plane 20 mm to the right, the right lobe was cranial to the other lobes of the liver. The left medial lobe was covered partially by quadrate lobe. Gall bladder did not reach the ventral border of the liver. The left medial lobe was cranial to the body of the stomach. Caudate lobe touched the muscles of the spine.
