Figure 5From: Anaesthesia and physiological monitoring during in vivo imaging of laboratory rodents: considerations on experimental outcomes and animal welfare Images displaying the clip sensors used by the pulse oximeter systems. (a) In the base of the mouse or (b) in the centre of the foot in rat. The MouseOx® murine pulse oximeter system from Starr Life Sciences® Corp. (Oakmont, PA, USA) provides measurements of O2 saturation, pulse rate, respiration and pulse and breathe distension. (c) Profile of arterial O2 saturation measurement in rat during MRI acquisitions at 100% and 21% O2 during inhalation anaesthesia with isoflurane.Back to article page
