A data driven approach for soft tissue biomarker identification linked to Chiari-like malformation and syringomyelia by Jake Cumber, Jake Cumber, Emma Scales-Theobald, Emma Scales-Theobald, Clare Rusbridge, Clare Rusbridge, Clare Rusbridge, Kevin Wells, Kevin Wells

“…CM is characterized by overcrowding of the brain and cervical spinal cord and is predisposed by skull-base shortening and miniaturization with brachycephalic toy dogs overwhelmingly represented. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is conventionally used for diagnosis; however, CM is complex and ubiquitous in some dog breeds so that diagnosis of CM-P relies on a combination of clinical signs, MRI, and elimination of other causes of pain. …”
