Serial non-invasive assessment of antibody induced nephritis in mice using positron emission tomography.

Mouse models of experimental anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) nephritis provide an analytical tool for studying spontaneous lupus nephritis. The potential of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) was evaluated using 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-d-glucose (FDG) as a probe to monitor the progressi...
