Iodine-based contrast staining improves micro-computed tomography of atherosclerotic coronary arteries
We sought to develop a reversible staining protocol using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) paired with a radiopaque contrast agent that allows for three-dimensional in situ • Iohexol enhances ex vivo micro-CT imaging of atherosclerotic coronary arteries; • Iohexol allows for improved tissue segm...

description | We sought to develop a reversible staining protocol using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) paired with a radiopaque contrast agent that allows for three-dimensional in situ • Iohexol enhances ex vivo micro-CT imaging of atherosclerotic coronary arteries; • Iohexol allows for improved tissue segmentation during micro-CT image analysis; • Effectiveness of iohexol penetration of the tissue was dependent on concentration and duration of incubation. |
