Hydrocephalus is a multifactorial disorder that was properly diagnosed in dogs until the availability of advanced imaging techniques in veterinary practice. The study was conducted on a sample of 15 dogs, aged between 3 months and 12 years, both females and males, of different breeds. To perform the measurements, two ratios were calculated: V/C (width of ventricles/width of cerebral parenchyma), Vh/Ch (height of ventricles/height of cerebral parenchyma) and corpus callosum angle. The average ratio between V/C was 0.68 (values being between 0.52-0.83), the average ratio between Vh/Ch was 0.60 or 60% (values being between 0.88-0.26), and the average of the corpus callosum angle was 69.4° (values being between 56° and 88°). This article evaluates different ventricular measurements based on MRI techniques for establishing hydrocephalus in dogs.
