Figure 7From: Comparison of mouse mammary gland imaging techniques and applications: Reflectance confocal microscopy, GFP Imaging, and ultrasound Ultrasound can distinguish between different lesions in transgenic mice in vivo. Possible applications are to identify and follow mammary tumor development and progression over time (A-C) and compare to the appearance of tumor at time of necropsy (D), identify liver metastasis (E-F), distinguish between adenocarcinoma (G) and enlarged lymphnodes (H). Thin white arrow: skin surface, thin black arrow: mitotic figure, thick white arrows: liver metastases, circle and black arrow: dissected metastatic lesion, open white arrow: tumor, *: enlarged lymph node. Scale for all ultrasound images in mm.Back to article page
