https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/clinical-discussions/17845/intracranial-pressure Hi, I have a physiology exam (for the DipAVN course) on friday and was wondering if anyone could help me out with a bit of revision... I know it is thought that brachycephalic breeds are more susceptible to increased ICP and that pressure on theen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/131442?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 30 May 2012 23:20:52 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:34eaab45-0469-42fa-a45f-98513a9bbc6aRhiannon Hutton<p>Brilliant!
