January 15, 2020 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM (EST) This free educational webinar hosted by Scintica Instrumentation introduces the brand new pre-clinical imaging system from Vilber, the Newton 7.0 FT Series. This new range of in-vivo imaging systems offer traditional 2D Bioluminescence and Fluorescence imaging, integrating an innovative 3D Optical Tomography
This free webinar hosted by Scintica Instrumentation provided an overview of performing “Doppler” measurements for preclinical cardiovascular assessment. It discussed the physical principles and technology used to acquire these measurements, how these techniques are employed in the preclinical field, and a short summary of the history behind the technology that so many
There are a variety of ways that researchers today can measure oxygenation of tissue in vivo. Unfortunately, while a range of options do exist, choosing which technology to use to measure tissue oxygenation is often difficult, even to those who have years of experience in the field. Here, we cover the four most prominent ways
The Integrative Cardiovascular Physiology laboratory at Colorado State University investigates the underlying causes of cardiovascular abnormalities in the settings of obesity and nutrient excess. Obese individuals are at an increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD)1. Prior to overt clinical manifestation of CVD, the arteries of obese individuals (and other at-risk populations) begin to
The scientific sessions from the American Heart Association is instrumental in shaping the future of cardiovascular science and medicine. Highlights include: Late-Breaking Science FIT/Early Career Programming Frontiers in Science Summits State of the Art Cardiovascular Care Cardiovascular Clinical Nursing Symposium Abstract Oral and Poster Sessions CME and MOC Credits Available
With the ever-growing preclinical imaging field, it is difficult to know which imaging modality is ideal for your experiment. This brief overview aims to help researchers optimize their experiments and their funding by choosing ideal imaging modalities for their prospective publications. Modalities discussed include: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Computed Tomography
This webinar considered a new class of targeted, liposomal-gadolinium MRI contrast agents that do not cross the placental barrier for preclinical studies of placental vascular architecture and placental accreta, or invasive placentation. These studies are conducted on a 1T permanent magnet MRI instrument which has high sensitivity for this gadolinium-based contrast
A team of researchers and clinicians at the Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health are investigating ways to reduce the incidence of kidney injury resulting from heart surgery and sepsis. Acute kidney injury is when our kidneys suddenly stop working. This happens in up to 30% of patients after heart surgery. Up to
The WMIC changes location every year to draw thousands of attendees and abstract submitters, highly respected presenters and top industry representatives from around the world. As the WMIC is education and abstract- driven, it provides a distinctive platform for scientists and clinicians with diverse backgrounds to interact and present cutting-edge advances in molecular
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique that utilizes magnetic fields to create images of the anatomy and the physiological processes within the body. Specifically, MRI, the gold standard in soft tissue imaging, offers researchers the ability to distinctly contrast between normal and pathological tissue. When it comes to the strengths of MRI in
