High spatial resolution measurements of organ blood flow in small laboratory animals

With the use of a newly developed Imaging Cryomicrotome to determine the spatial location of fluorescent microspheres in organs, we validate and report our processing algorithms for measuring regional blood flow in small laboratory animals. Mathematical dissection algorithms, statistics to analyze t...

Zusammenfassung:	With the use of a newly developed Imaging Cryomicrotome to determine the spatial location of fluorescent microspheres in organs, we validate and report our processing algorithms for measuring regional blood flow in small laboratory animals. Mathematical dissection algorithms, statistics to analyze the spatial data, and methods to visualize blood flow distributions in small animal organs are presented.
