221 MICRO CT ANALYSIS AFTER STEM CELL DELIVERY AND ANGIOGENESIS 10 autograft, P<0.0001 to allograft, P<0.05 to SIEF only and P<0.05 to SIEF combined with differentiated MSCs, respectively), and comparable to control (P=0.15). Figure 2. Micro computed tomography (micro CT) images of nerve samples. Micro CT images of un- operated control nerve (A), autograft (B), allograft (C), and allograft wrapped in a pedicled superficial inferior epigastric artery fascial (SIEF) flap (D), combined with undifferentiated mesenchymal stem cells (uMSC, E) or mesenchymal stem cells differentiated into Schwann cell-like cells (dMSC, F). Images were obtained at two weeks. Nerve samples were positioned from proximal to distal (left to right, respectively). Scale bar is set at 1 mm. In the supplementary data, videos of these nerve samples are provided to give a 3D representation of the micro CT.
