A Volumetric Method for Quantifying Atherosclerosis in Mice by Using MicroCT: Comparison to En Face

Precise quantification of atherosclerotic plaque in preclinical models of atherosclerosis requires the volumetric assessment of the lesion(s) while maintaining in situ architecture. Here we use micro-computed tomography (microCT) to detect ex vivo aortic plaque established in three dyslipidemic mous...
