Fiber orientation in a whole mouse heart reconstructed by laboratory phase-contrast micro-CT.
TL;DR: In this paper, a phase-contrast x-ray tomography study of wild type C57BL/6 mouse hearts is presented, which is a nondestructive approach to the microanatomy on the scale of the entire excised organ.

TL;DR: This work shows how the developmental stage, ranging from neonatal to adult cells, as well as the final preparation state of the cardiomyocytes influences the recorded scattering signal and how these diffraction signals compare to the structure of a fully developed cardiac muscle.

Multi-scale X-ray phase-contrast tomography of murine heart tissue.
TL;DR: A multi-scale three-dimensional imaging approach with three levels of magnification, based on synchrotron X-ray phase contrast tomography, for cardiac muscle tissue exhibits a complex structure on multiple length scales, from the sarcomeric unit to the whole organ.

Evaluation of a mechanical lung model to test small animal whole body plethysmography.
TL;DR: In this paper, an artificial lung model was designed to evaluate different predictions about and around whole-body plethysmography (WBP) in animals and animal models of a variety of diseases.
Simple low dose radiography allows precise lung volume assessment in mice.

TL;DR: In this article, a set-up for simultaneous assessment of lung function and volume using XLF, micro-CT and whole-body plethysmography (WBP) on healthy mice was developed.
