Body surface area measurements in male Hartley guinea pigs using a computed tomography scanner

The body surface area (BSA) of animals is generally estimated by multiplying the k value (constant) by the measured body weight (BW) raised to the power of 2/3 (Meeh’s formula). Computed tomography (CT) scanners generate detailed 3-dimensional (3D) images of objects, and image analysis does not depe...
