FVB mice (Charles River Laboratories, Inc.; sex, female; age, 9–10 weeks), were serially imaged using a PerkinElmer Quantum GX micro-CT scanner at different times after intraductal injection as described37 (link) with a solution containing 60 or 100 mM Tantalum oxide nanocrystals as contrast agent. Serial micro-CT was performed with: 2 minute acquisition; 90kVp/88μA; FOV, 36 mm; voxel resolution, 72 μm3.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
