Abstract
Conclusions and Clinical Relevance-The Pfirrmann system was reliably used to grade IVD degeneration in dogs of various breeds and ages. An increase in the extent of IVD degeneration was positively correlated with increases in age and with chondrodystrophic-type dogs. (Am J Vet Res 2011;72:893-898)
