title: Computed tomography in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis--preliminary results.
abstract: Four dogs were immunized with a mixture of spinal cord homogenate and complete Freund's adjuvant. One of these dogs developed hyperacute allergic encephalomyelitis. Cranial computed tomography in this animal demonstrated a low absorption area in the internal capsule that corresponded to the pathologic lesion. Computed tomography scanning may be a useful tool in monitoring experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
