Validation of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry for longitudinal quantification of tumor burden in a murine model of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Noninvasive imaging is central to preclinical, in vivo models of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). While bioluminescent imaging (BLI) is a gold standard, its signal is dependent on the metabolic activity of tumor cells. In contrast, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) is a direct measure...
