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
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
In my day to day interactions, I come across numerous researchers who are not able to fully utilize MRI systems as they would like or cannot see themselves using this technology even though it could immensely help their research. The reasons for this are numerous but often fall into 1 of 3 categories. Price
Each fall since 1950, the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science has held its annual National Meeting. During the five days of the meeting, members and nonmembers come together to enjoy the workshops, lectures, poster sessions, and exhibits. The program is designed to have topics relevant to the entire membership. The AALAS National
What is PET/CT Imaging? PET/CT imaging is the combination of two distinct imaging techniques. a What is PET Imaging? PET, or positron emission tomography, is a look at the metabolic or biochemical activity present in a given anatomical region using radiotracers. a What is a radiotracer? A radiotracer is a chemical compound in which
This free webinar hosted by Scintica Instrumentation reviewed the fundamentals of Magnetic Resonance Histology (MRH) and provided a number of relevant examples. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been used for years in preclinical research to perform in vivo studies allowing for the sensitive detection of pathological changes in soft tissue and to
