The overall goal of this procedure is to induce cerebral cavernous malformations in neonatal mice, and measure the disease burden using micro-CT. This method can help answer key questions in cerebral vascular disease field, such as cerebral cavern

This protocol demonstrates the induction of cerebral cavernous malformation disease in a mouse model and uses contrast enhanced micro computed tomography to measure lesion burden. This method enhances the value of established mouse models to study the molecular basis and potential therapies for cerebral cavernous malformation and other cerebrovascular diseases.
