Tumor volume in subcutaneous mouse xenografts measured by microCT is more accurate and reproducible than determined by (18)F-FDG-microPET or external caliper

BACKGROUND: In animal studies tumor size is used to assess responses to anticancer therapy. Current standard for volumetric measurement of xenografted tumors is by external caliper, a method often affected by error. The aim of the present study was to evaluate if microCT gives more accurate and repr...
