Abstract

The evaluation of novel endoscopes may require testing in experimental tumor models, particularly when employing new biomarkers. Tumor models, however, exist almost exclusively in small animals. Therefore, we aimed to develop an experimental setting that allows the use of clinical-scale endoscopes in small animals.
