Iodine-Enhanced Micro-CT Imaging of Soft Tissue on the Example of Peripheral Nerve Regeneration

Progressive decalcification during Lugol staining. The femoral head where most severe cases of decalcification were observed is shown. No decalcification was observed in step I (a); in step II, exposed parts of the bone exhibit a loss of attenuation indicating localized decalcification (b, c); in step III, larger regions of the bone are affected (d, e).
