From basic science all the way through clinical trials, preclinical molecular imaging removes the limitations and enables you to see biological processes in complex living organisms in a whole new way.
The preclinical imaging primer developed by David Stout, Ph.D., Director, UCLA Crump Imaging Center, is designed to help new and experienced researchers gain insight into the benefits of investigating biological and structural features in living animals.
“Preclinical imaging using Siemens preclinical PET and CT technology enables rodent research with sufficient resolution and sensitivity to characterize the metabolic and structural signatures of various disease models. By combining molecular Imaging techniques and probes that are directly applicable to the clinical environment, we can easily facilitate the translation of our findings into patient diagnosis and care.”
