Zusammenfassung
Introduction: In the past decades X-ray-based approaches have been well established in preclinical and clinical applications for fast and high resolution analysis of morphological and anatomical data. Optical fluorescence tomography has proven to be a valuable tool to non-invasively study diseases and pathologies on a molecular level. The goal of this work is to develop and to establish a novel multimodal imaging system by combining anatomical-morphological data from micro-CT and functional-physiological data from optical fluorescence tomography (OFT). Material and Methods: The imaging system consists of micro-C…
