MRI-signs of increased intraventricular pressure. Dorsal (a–c) and transverse (d) MR-images of dogs with internal hydrocephalus showing signs of increased intraventricular pressure (IVP). The amount of distension is measured by the ventricle/brain-index (a). The IVP leads do dilation of the olfactory recesses (c). Periventricular edema occurs if the intraventricular pressure exerts the compliance of the brain parenchyma (d). This can also lead to lacerations of the white matter adjacent to the caudate nucleus (b)
