Specific software was used for reconstruction of spontaneous intracranial tumor volume from magnetic resonance images (MRI) in three dogs. Histopathologically confirmed meningioma, cystic meningioma, and choroid plexus tumors were evaluated before and after surgery. The software allowed the whole-volume segmentation of the skin, brain, tumor, edema, and cyst. Manipulation of the three-dimensional images (3D) allowed visualization of all anatomical structures, aided clinical understanding, surgical planning, and treatment monitoring.
