TL;DR: Histomorphometry is the most sensitive technique since it detects airspace enlargement before the other methods (1 h after treatment) and micro-CT correlates well with histology (r2 = 0.63) proving appropriate for longitudinal studies.
Abstract: Objectives To define the potential, limitations and synergies of micro-CT and other non-radiological techniques for the quantification of emphysema and related processes in mice, by performing a complete characterization of the elastase-induced emphysema model.
