The microanatomy of the lung is complex with intricate branching patterns. Tissue sections are therefore difficult to interpret. Recruited intrapulmonary bronchopulmonary anastomoses (IBAs) have been described in several forms of pulmonary hypertension, including alveolar capillary dysplasia with misaligned pulmonary veins (ACD\/MPV). Here, we examine paraffin-embedded tissue using this nondestructive method for high-resolution three-dimensional imaging. Blocks of healthy and ACD\/MPV lung tissue were used. Pulmonary and bronchial arteries in the ACD\/MPV block had been preinjected with dye. One section per block was stained, and areas of interest were marked to allow precise beam-alignment during image acquisition at the X02DA TOMCAT beamline (Swiss Light Source). A \u00d74 magnifying objective coupled to a 20-\u00b5m thick scintillating material and a sCMOS detector yielded the best trade-off between spatial resolution and field-of-view. A phase retrieval algorithm was applied and virtual tomographic slices and video clips of the imaged volumes were produced. Dye injections generated a distinct attenuation difference between vessels and surrounding tissue, facilitating segmentation and three-dimensional rendering. Histology and immunohistochemistry post-imaging offered complementary information. IBAs were confirmed in ACD\/MPV, and the MPVs were positioned like bronchial veins\/venules. We demonstrate the advantages of using synchrotron-based phase-contrast micro-CT for three-dimensional characterization of pulmonary microvascular anatomy in paraffin-embedded tissue. Vascular dye injections add additional value. We confirm intrapulmonary shunting in ACD\/MPV and provide support for the hypothesis that MPVs are dilated bronchial veins\/venules.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1152\/ajplung.00103.2019","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,9]],"date-time":"2019-10-09T11:21:48Z","timestamp":1570620108000},"page":"L65-L75","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":65,"title":["Synchrotron-based
