LDPI scan technique. (A) Animal positioning in sternal recumbency on a light-absorbing pad, with the hind plantar surfaces symmetrical and perpendicular to the laser beam. (B) LDPI image post-processing and measurement standardized protocol: the mean intensity of the Doppler signal was registered in ROI encompassing the hind paws and expressed as numerical value normalized for their area (perfusion color scale 0–5 volts).
