DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-53822-x
Abstract: Longitudinal in vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) is of interest to non-invasively capture the healing process of individual animals in preclinical fracture healing studies. However, it is not known whether longitudinal imaging itself has an impact… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0207323
Abstract: In vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) can monitor longitudinal changes in bone mass and microstructure in small rodents but imposing high doses of radiation can damage the bone tissue. However, the effect of weekly micro-CT scanning… read more here.

Effects of long-term in vivo micro-CT imaging on hallmarks of osteopenia and frailty in aging mice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "PLoS ONE"
DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0239534
Abstract: In vivo micro-CT has already been used to monitor microstructural changes of bone in mice of different ages and in models of age-related diseases such as osteoporosis. However, as aging is accompanied by frailty and… read more here.
