Abstract

Diagnostic-quality X-ray computed to ography (CT) images, with spatial resolution of 0.05 to 0.1 mm, have now been made of small laboratory animals with a "micro-CT" scanner incorpo rating a special, high-resolution X-ray detector array. The images show clearly defined internal organ structure and tumors in intact rodents.
