"Utilizing A High Resolution X-Ray System For Basic And Pre-Clinical Research"
|
|
|
Abstract:
The skeleton is scaffold upon which our bodies and many other animals are built. A number of disorders affect the skeletal system including developmental disorders, acute injuries, and metastatic bone cancer. Pre-clinical small animal models exist for many of these bone disorders. These models can serve as a platform for studying other genetic modifiers or potential therapeutics. However, conducting these studies often require sacrifice of the animals, dissection, and study via microscopy or X-vivo CT analysis. By contrast, non-invasive imaging provides a resource for conducting longitudinal studies without sacrificing or harming the animal. In this webinar, we shall demonstrate how quantitative, small animal X-ray systems provide an ideal solution for non-invasive imaging a both the skeleton or soft tissue structures in pre-clinical animal models.
