摘      要：Objective:To find importance of morphometrie criterion of larval rostellar hook of Echinococcus granulosus(***) and the easy and reliable method for distinguish sheep and camel strains in epidemiologic ***:Larval rostellar hooks(n=1860) of 31 camel and sheep isolates in Iran,which aheady had been characterized by *** carefully processed by computerized imagime analysis system(CIAS) and acquired data about rostellar books were analyzed using software ***:Measurement analysis of rostellar hooks[mean Iength (24.23±3.12lμm]indicated that length of the large hook was a remarkable parameter for strain *** analysis demonstrated that CIAS could be used as a reliable tool to distinguish camel from sheep strains with high sensitivity(95.2%) and specificity(91.5%). Conclusions:CIAS as a specific,sensitive,economic,fast,and reliable means might be used for differentiation of *** *** perimeter and area were measured by digital technology,they were not shown as discriminative criterion as total hook length did.
