| الوصف: | Lung diseases continue to present a large burden to public health, especially in industrialized countries. For abetter understanding of the underlying patho-mechanisms in lung related diseases as well as for testing theefficacy of novel therapies, preclinical studies in animal models are indispensable. The significance of preclinical X-ray based micro-computed tomography (µCT) research lies in its ability to provide high-resolution, non-invasive lung imaging of small animals as the air inside the lung acts as a natural contrast and to image the lung parenchyma longitudinally to assess functional and morphological alterations and test efficacy of therapeutic interventions. This often requires requires imaging protocols that balance between sufficient image quality and clinically relevant radiation absorbed doses. A reproducible method for evaluation of absorbed radiation absorbed doses is desirable. Absorbed radiation absorbed doses were measured in a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) phantom using standard TLD and a novel type of OSLD made form household salt. Four imaging protocols from MILabs “xUHR-µCT” scanner were tested. A large discrepancy was observed from results compared to vendor-provided values. The results indicate a need for thorough empirical dose measurements prior to performing longitudinal studies. Four-dimensional imaging, allows for investigation of the dynamics of regional lung functional parameters simultaneously with structural deformation of the lung as a function of time. It is of significant interest to have direct visualization and quantification of interstitial lung diseases at spatial resolutions beyond the capabilities of clinical and conventional absorption-based only CT. Thus far, the high intensity of synchrotron X-ray light sources offer a tool to investigate dynamic morphological and mechanistic features, enabling dynamic in-vivo microscopy. This investigation elucidates the direct effects of interventions targeting the pathophysiology of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) ... |
