MR Solutions’ new in vivo optical imaging technology, the MRS CellLIVE system, can examine the interior of a sedated animal down to cellular level at up to 1,000 times magnification. This system, including scientific analysis software, facilitates optical microscopy of small animal subjects for preclinical research without having to carry out a dissection.
The MR Solutions’ CellLIVE system is due to be launched in 2015 to meet the growing requirements of the preclinical research market. This complements the company’s Cryogen free 3T and 7T preclinical MRI imaging solutions which have multi-modality capabilities including PET and SPECT.
David Taylor, the CEO, of MR Solutions explained: “Our new CellLIVE optical imaging system can be used in a broad range of animal investigations with fluorescent contrast agents and molecular markers with fantastic imaging quality.”
