Abstract: For medical research, a large number of animals are needed every year. The purpose of this work was to design a 3D CAD rat model which can be used to improve experiment planning and thus reduce the animals required. It was determined using an anatomy atlas and printed with stereolithography. The result is a model that contains the most important vessels and organs as hollow cavities. In a first MPI measurement, all organs filled with tracer of varying concentration were successfully imaged.
