Representative T2-weighted axial MRI images summarizing brain and ventricular morphology in non-hydrocephalic control (A–C) and hydrocephalic pre-shunt (A′-C′) pigs. The intact control piglet (case 25) is 41-days old. Pre-shunt images are taken from case 13 at 18-days post-kaolin. In the pre-shunt condition, note the enlargement of all cerebral ventricles and the cisterna magna (CM), prominent flow voids (black) within the foramina of Monro (FM) and third ventricle indicative of high CSF pulsatility, the large olfactory ventricle (OV), and the choroid plexus (CP) in the lateral ventricle (LV). 4—fourth ventricle, H—hippocampus, LVt—temporal horn of the lateral ventricle. Scale bar = 10 mm for all panels
