Retrograde perfusion and filling of mouse coronary vasculature as preparation for micro computed tomography imaging.
Visualization of the vasculature is becoming increasingly important for understanding many different disease states. While several techniques exist for imaging vasculature, few are able to visualize the vascular network as a whole while extending to a resolution that includes the smaller vessels. Additionally, many vascular casting techniques destroy the surrounding tissue, preventing further a...
متن کاملCardiac micro-computed tomography imaging of the aging coronary vasculature.
BACKGROUND Alterations at the level of the coronary circulation with aging may play an important role in the evolution of age-associated changes in left ventricular (LV) fibrosis and function. However these age-associated changes in the coronary vasculature remain poorly defined primarily due to the lack of high resolution imaging technologies. The current study was designed to utilize cardiac ...
متن کاملA perfusion procedure for imaging of the mouse cerebral vasculature by X-ray micro-CT
BACKGROUND Micro-CT is a novel X-ray imaging modality which can provide 3D high resolution images of the vascular network filled with contrast agent. The cerebrovascular system is a complex anatomical structure that can be imaged with contrast enhanced micro-CT. However, the morphology of the cerebrovasculature and many circulatory anastomosis in the brain result in high variations in the exten...
