The system can accommodate preclinical studies on various animal models including mice, rats, rabbits, woodchuck, pig, and sheep and so on.
Hybrid 3D Preclinical X-ray CT/Fluorescence Tomography
The InSyTe FLECT/CT is a dual-modality, preclinical molecular imaging platform that combines complete angle fluorescence tomography with X-ray CT. It is optimized for near infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes to enable deep tissue imaging capability in vivo. Combined with the inline X-ray CT subsystem, the InSyTe FLECT/CT performs noninvasive, radioisotope-free, 3D tomographic imaging with anatomical reference. The system offers excellent image quality over a 80 mm imaging FOV to accommodate mice as well as small sized rats imaging.
