What it is used for

The CatWalk XT is a non-invasive assay performing gait analysis in rodents (mice or rats). Using a combination of green and red led arrays, the footprints of the walking rodent are illuminated and digitally scanned. Several secondary parameters can be inferred from paws placement.
