Guidance for methods descriptions used in preclinical imaging papers.

摘要: Preclinical molecular imaging is a rapidly growing field, where new systems, methods, and biological findings are constantly being developed or discovered. Imaging systems the associated software usually have multiple options for generating data, which often overlooked but essential when reporting methods used to create analyze data. Similarly, ways in animals housed, handled, treated physiologically based data must be well described order that relevant, useful, reproducible. There frequently developments metabolic methods. Thus, specific requirements difficult establish; however, it remains adequately report how been collected, processed, analyzed. To assist with future manuscript submissions, this article aims provide guidelines of what details several most common modalities. Examples provided an attempt give comprehens...
