Small-animal imaging has a critical role in phenotyping, drug discovery and in providing a
basic understanding of mechanisms of disease. Translating imaging methods from humans to …

Micron-scale computed tomography (micro-CT) is an essential tool for phenotyping and for
elucidating diseases and their therapies. This work is focused on preclinical micro-CT …

Computed tomography (CT) is one of the most valuable modalities for in vivo imaging because
it is fast, high-resolution, cost-effective, and non-invasive. Moreover, CT is heavily used …

… C and 41.4 C) than nanoshells (34.7 C) at equivalent optical density. The calculated values
of photothermal conversion efficiency (Figure ​7F) were 94% for 30-nm GNS, 90% for 60-…

OBJECTIVE. The goal of this study was to determine if an iodinated, liposomal contrast agent
could be used for high-resolution, micro-CT of low-contrast, small-size vessels in a murine …

Recent advances in murine cardiac studies with three‐dimensional (3D) cone beam micro‐CT
used a retrospective gating technique. However, this sampling technique results in a …

… The mouse is supported in an acrylic tube (c) placed on a support which is rotated by a
computer-controlled stepping motor (d). The tube and detector are supported on a gantry (e) …

… Body temperature was recorded using a rectal thermistor and maintained at 36.5C by an
infrared lamp and feedback controller system (Digi-Sense, Cole Parmer, Chicago, IL). The …

Societal inequality has been found to harm the mental and physical health of its members
and undermine overall social cohesion. Here, we tested the hypothesis that economic …

… Studies 2a-c provide evidence of convergent and discriminant validity. Finally, assessing
PAS in 28 countries, we show that PAS correlates with national indicators of societal …
