Evaluation of intervertebral disk degeneration in chondrodystrophic and nonchondrodystrophic dogs by use of Pfirrmann grading of images obtained with low-field magnetic resonance imaging

    Publication: Contribution to journalJournal articlepeer-review

    Abstract

    Conclusions and Clinical Relevance-The Pfirrmann system was reliably used to grade IVD degeneration in dogs of various breeds and ages. An increase in the extent of IVD degeneration was positively correlated with increases in age and with chondrodystrophic-type dogs. (Am J Vet Res 2011;72:893-898)
