Within 3 hours of induction of acute hydrocephalus in a canine model, lateral ventricular CSF pressure increased from an initial average of 14.6 +/- 2.8 cm H2O to 40.2 +/- 5.7 cm H2O. Ventricular volumes, as measured from MR images, increased 1.45 +/- 0.94 cm3, 1.92 +/- 0.82 cm3, and 2.24 +/- 0.60 cm3 after 6, 24, and 48 hours, of hydrocephalus, respectively. This canine model was reliable and consistent with clinical conditions.
