Micro computed tomography for vascular exploration
Vascular exploration of small animals requires imaging hardware with a very high spatial resolution, capable of differentiating large as well as small vessels, in both in vivo and ex vivo studies. Micro Computed Tomography (micro-CT) has emerged in recent years as the preferred modality for this purpose, providing high resolution 3D volumetric data suitable for analysis, quantification, validat...
متن کاملX-ray micro-computed tomography
Micro-computed tomography (μCT) has been successfully used to study the cardiovascular system of mouse embryos in situ. With the use of barium as a suitablecontrast agent, blood vessels have beenimaged and analysed quantitatively such asblood volume and vessel sizes on embryosof ages 14.5 to 16.5 days old. The advantageof using this imaging modality is that it hasprovide...
متن کاملParameter-Space Exploration for Computed Tomography Image Analysis Algorithms
We present a tool which supports CT specialists in exploring the parameter and result space of volume segmentation pipelines. In a preprocessing step, the user samples the parameter space of a number of pipelines to be analysed. Our sampling tool supports arbitrary pipeliness that can be parametrized via the command line. The user can then explore the space of possible results of the sampled pi...
متن کاملMicro-Computed Tomography for the Evaluation of Bone Architecture
Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) is an emerging technique for the nondestructive assessment and analysis of the three-dimensional trabecular bone structure. Trabecular bone consists of a complicated three-dimensional network of plates and rods, arranged in a lattice-like network [1]. Aging, disease process, and therapeutic agents could influence the number of elements in this network, their...
متن کاملContrast Agents for Micro-Computed Tomography of Microdamage in Bone
Accumulation of microdamage during fatigue can lead to increased fracture susceptibilityin bone. Current techniques for imaging microdamage in bone are inherently destructiveand two-dimensional. Therefore, the objective of this study was to image the accumulationof fatigue microdamage in cortical bone using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT)with a barium sulfate (BaSO4) contra...
