FIGURE 2

Contrast CT (left), micro-SPECT (center), and fused SPECT/CT (right) images of apoEāˆ’/āˆ’ mice fed Western diet for more than 16 wk. Imaging showed no focal aortic arch hot spots in mice injected with a nonspecific IgG antibody (nIgG) probe (top row), whereas all mice injected with targeted LOX-1 probe had hot spots in aortic arch (lower row). Results were confirmed by ex vivo phosphor imaging of excised aortas. Sudan IV staining demonstrated comparable plaques between the 2 groups.
