Assessment of Viability of Human Fat Injection into Nude Mice with Micro-Computed Tomography
January 7th, 2015
•Fat grafting is an essential technique for reconstructing soft tissue deficits. However, it remains an unpredictable procedure characterized by variable graft survival. Our goal was to devise a mouse model that utilizes a novel imaging method to compare volume retention between differing techniques of fat graft preparation and delivery.
