High-resolution in ovo imaging is employed for
monitoring the growth of human breast cancer cells
grafted on the chorioallantonic membrane of chick
embryos. High-resolution imaging is achieved by using an
age-adopted precooling regime for immobilization of the
chick embryo. The proposed scheme is proven safe for the
chick embryo showing same survival rates as in a control
group. The high-resolution MRI enables quantification of
the tumor xenografts starting from d4 after grafting. A
good correlation between tumor volumes derived by MRI
and the weight of the tumor after extraction is shown.
