Enhanced Prediction of Porcine Islet Yield and Posttransplant Outcome Using a Combination of Quantitative Histomorphometric Parameters and Flow Cytometry

Prediction of islet yield and posttransplant outcome is essential for clinical porcine islet xenotransplantation. Although several histomorphometric parameters of biopsied porcine pancreases are predictive of islet yield, their role in the prediction of in vivo islet potency is unknown. We investiga...
