Purpose: The comparative analysis of our CT data with conventional 2D histology highlights the future applicability of the cytoplasm-specific X-ray staining method for modern histological and histopathological investigations using laboratory X-ray CT devices.
Figure: CT slices of microCT (A and B) and nanoCT (C−F) data in comparison with the histological microscopic slides (G−J) derived from the same mouse kidney after application of the developed eosin-based staining protocol. These demonstrate in particular the compatibility with conventional histological methods.
