LackieSerial μCT images (A-D) and corresponding Movat’s stained histological sections (E-H) demonstrate the ability of the μCT scanner to provide sufficient contrast between tissue and paraffin to allow image analysis. Structures at the cellular level can be differentiated through staining of histological sections. Microscopy can achieve higher resolution as visualized by the magnified comparison of C (zoomed image) and G (20x magnification). [TB = terminal bronchiole, RB = respiratory bronchiole].
