We performed a number of tests including blood test, X-ray examination, ultrasonic examination, Encephalitozoon titer test, and neurological examination on 3 rabbits showing neurological symptoms. Based on the test results, neurological disorder was strongly suspected. Therefore, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT) were performed. Based on their clinical condition and the findings on MRI and X-ray CT, the rabbits were diagnosed with labyrinthitis/tympanitis, hydrocephalus, and myelomalacia. We conclude that MRI and X-ray CT can be useful for diagnosing neurological disorders in rabbits, as is the case with cats and dogs.
