Optical projection tomography (OPT) is a 3D imaging technology. The 3D tomographic reconstruction permits precise analysis and quantification of various structures in developing embryonic tissues and adult organs of small rodents or biopsies. OPT enables detailed and accurate studies of kidney organogenesis, namely, ureteric tree branching morphogenesis and nephron quantification.
光学投影断层扫描(OPT)是一种三维成像技术。三维断层重建允许对发育中的胚胎组织、小型啮齿动物的成年器官或活检组织中的各种结构进行精确分析和定量。OPT能够对肾脏器官发生进行详细而准确的研究,即输尿管树分支形态发生和肾单位定量分析。
