High-Resolution X-ray Microtomography for the Detection of Lung Tumors in Living Mice

In the present study, the feasibility of applying highresolution microtomography (micro-CT) for the detection of lung tumors was investigated in live mice at an early and more advanced stage of tumor development. The chest area of anesthesized mice was scanned by X-ray micro-CT. In mice with a mino...
