Magnetic resonance imaging of the pancreas in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats: Gadofluorine P and Gd-DOTA

Figure 10 Thirty days’ monitoring of body weight (A) and blood glucose level (B) of rats with streptozotocin intraperitoneal injection. Nine separate rats were treated with streptozotocin in the same way as the material and method. They are monitored for blood glucose level and weight for 30 d. Among them, two rats failed to develop hyperglycemia. In diabetic rats, blood glucose level was elevated and plateaued above 4.5 g/dL from day 3.
