|---|---|---|---|
| ICV (ml) | 80.5 (± 2.3) | 99.9 (± 1.7) | <0.001 |
| Volume (ml) | 76.5 (± 2.1) | 101.1 (± 1.7) | <0.001 |

Volumetric brain measurements of NCL‐affected (n = 11) and unaffected control (n = 14) sheep. Intracranial volumes (ICV) measured on CT scans and brain volumes (Volume) measured by water displacement. p ≤ 0.05 regarded as significant.
