Computed tomographic features and temporal evolution of the magnetic resonance imaging features of a resolving intracranial intraventricular hematoma in a dog.

An 11-year-old miniature pinscher presented for acute onset, seizure-like or syncopal episodes. Computed tomography of the head revealed a hyperattenuating, nonenhancing right lateral ventricular mass. Magnetic resonance imaging identified a right lateral ventricular hemorrhagic mass associated with the choroid plexus and disseminated intraventricular and subarachnoid space hemorrhage.

Physical examination and CT to assess thoracic injury in 137 cats presented to UK referral hospitals after trauma.

Objectives: The aim of the study was to describe clinical examination and thoracic CT (TCT) findings in cats after trauma, and to identify physical examination findings associated with both abnormalities on TCT and the need for therapeutic interventions.

Methods: A multicentre, retrospective, observational study was conducted. Cats admitted to the participating hospitals with a history of blunt trauma and that underwent TCT were eligible.
