| Computed tomography (CT) is widely used in humans for the assessment of regional body composition. It was particularly helpful in establishing the metabolic complications associated with high visceral fat volume. Physicists have only recently developed microCT systems dedicated to small animal imaging, with adequate resolution and dose delivery, but precision, accuracy and reproducibility remain to be determined. |
