Main
The Small Animal Imaging Facility extends the benefits of modern dignostic medical imaging systems to the studies of anatomy and physiology in small animals. The Facility currently features state-of-the-art Bruker BioSpec 7.1 T horizontal-bore MRI, General Electric EVS-RS9 micro-CT, Inveon Preclinical micro-PET/ micro-SPECT/ micro-CT and Visen FMT 2500 fluorescence tomographer scanners. All are equipped with supporting and monitoring hardware that allows a wide variety of imaging experiments, including longitudinal studies, to be performed on live animals and specimens. Imaging scientists, full-time imaging personnel, and animal support technicians are available for technical consultation and experimental assistance.
