Significant group differences are shown with and without correcting for intracranial volumes (ICV) (brain region divided by ICV). Data are presented as raw means (mm3) ± SE. Positive values for the percent difference in brain volume indicate greater volumes in control animals. Control n = 7, Influenza n = 12.

GM, gray matter; WM, white matter; CSF, cerebrospinal fluid.
