How Analyze was Used
“Reconstructed images were displayed on a workstation … with the Analyze … software package. ROIs were traced in the opacified peripheral zone representing the cortex and in the darker enclosed area of the medulla [Krier et al. 2001, Lee et al. 2003, Thoeny et al. 2005, van den Dool et al. 2005]. The outer boundaries of both the cortex and the medulla were used to define the region representing the entire kidney.”
