متن کاملClinical and Diagnostic Imaging Features of Brain Herniation in Dogs and Cats
BACKGROUND Quantification of brain herniation on MRI and its immediate clinical implications are poorly described. OBJECTIVES Define the normal position of caudal fossa structures on brain MRIs in dogs and cats utilizing morphometry, compare this to dogs and cats with caudal transtentorial herniation (CTH), foramen magnum herniation (FMH) or both identified on MRI, and investigate association...
متن کاملSonographic diagnosis of ascending transtentorial herniation of posterior fossa cystic masses.
In recent years, neonatal cranial sonography has been extensively used to diagnose intracranial hemorrhages, congenital anomalies, and intracranial masses despite such limiting factors as the size of the anterior fontanelle and lack of contrast enhancement similar to cranial CT [1] . While cranial CT during infancy lacks easy access to direct sagittal scanning, sonography offers multiplanar ima...
