Hydrocephalus Brain MRI Comparison - Ventricular Enlargement Progression #3058655 (License: Personal Use)

This paired axial MRI image set illustrates the progression of hydrocephalus, with the left panel depicting early-stage ventricular dilation and the right panel showing advanced disease where the lateral ventricles are significantly enlarged, displacing cortical structures and reducing parenchymal volume. The contrast highlights loss of periventricular white matter and midline shift, key diagnostic markers used in neuroimaging assessment. Both images use color-coded segmentation to emphasize cerebrospinal fluid (white), gray matter (yellow), and white matter (red-brown).

Used in neurology and radiology educational resources, patient brochures, or clinical decision support tools to demonstrate hydrocephalus severity; matches user intent for medical students, clinicians, or patients seeking visual understanding of disease progression.
