Design of Small Animal Computed Tomography Imaging for in vitro and in vivo Studies
Introduction: Mini Computed Tomography (mini-CT) was suggested in biomedical research to investigate tissues and small animals. We present designed and built a mini x-ray computed tomography (mini-CT) for small animals as well as industrial component imaging. Materials and Methods: The system used in this study includes a X-ray tube 20kV to 160kV and a flat pa...
متن کاملDevelopment of a micro-computed tomography-based image-guided conformal radiotherapy system for small animals.
PURPOSE To report on the physical aspects of a system in which radiotherapy functionality was added to a micro-computed tomography (microCT) scanner, to evaluate the accuracy of this instrument, and to and demonstrate the application of this technology for irradiating tumors growing within the lungs of mice. METHODS AND MATERIALS A GE eXplore RS120 microCT scanner was modified by the addition...
متن کاملHigh Resolution 3D Imaging of Ex-Vivo Biological Samples by Micro CT
Non-destructive volume visualization can be achieved only by tomographic techniques, of which the most efficient is the x-ray micro computerized tomography (μCT). High resolution μCT is a very versatile yet accurate (1-2 microns of resolution) technique for 3D examination of ex-vivo biological samples(1, 2). As opposed to electron tomography, the μCT allows the examination of up to 4 cm thick s...

متن کاملEx vivo micro-computed tomography analysis of bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis for preclinical drug evaluation.
Research into the pathogenesis underlying the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is hampered by a repertoire of animal models that fail to recapitulate all the features of the human disease. Better use and understanding of what the animal models represent may improve clinical predictability. We interrogated ex vivo micro-computed tomography (CT) as a novel end-point measure in the mou...
