Quantitative imaging of microvascular permeability in a rat model of lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis: evaluation using cryostatic micro-computed tomography

Langheinrich AC, Ritman EL. Quantitative imaging of microvascular permeability in a rat model of lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis: evaluation using cryostatic micro-computed tomography. Invest Radiol. August 2006;41(8):645-650.

How Analyze was Used
“Temperature sensors within the chamber were used to control the rate of inflow of cold nitrogen gas so as to maintain the specimen temperature within ±1°C off the desired temperature. The resulting 3D images (18-μm cubic voxels) were displayed at 16-bit gray scale and analyzed using image analysis software (Analyze 6.0).”
