The present study aimed to radiologically describe the bone anatomy of ten woolly monkeys (Lagothrix lagotricha) using the MicroDicom viewer, which is a program to perform measurements. For this purpose, a registry of radiographic views belonging to the Isla de los Monos Rescue Center was used, which were taken during January and February 2019. Measurements were made of various bone elements that make up the skeleton in its entirety; later the results were placed in tables, according to age group, with the means and standard deviation of the measurements. The results of Lagothrix lagotricha indicate that both the forelimbs and hindquarters are of similar length. The number of vertebrae varies in woolly monkeys. In addition, the species studied has a sigmoid-shaped clavicle. We can conclude that the morphology and particularities of the bone elements of the studied species are similar to the literary information of L. lagotricha.
