Can we use vertical bore magnetic resonance scanners for murine cardiovascular phenotype characterization? Influence of upright body position on left ventricular hemodynamics in mice.

High resolution magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is uniquely suited for cardiovascular phenotype characterization in transgenic mice. Experimental MR scanners with the high magnetic field strength are commonly built with a vertical bore design. The hemodynamic consequences of a prolonged upright body...
