Small Animal X-Ray Imaging Service
In tumor study, it is important for researchers to find a method to monitor the growing process in a harmless way during long-term research. In small animals, X-ray is a convenient way to study a tumor model. Nowadays, a high-resolution imaging system is using for the detection of tumors in small animals. These imaging systems permit researchers to non-invasively scan animals for mutations or pathologies and to monitor disease progression and response to therapy. In this way, we can study the tumor with the images and data, which provide us a good way to understand what is going on in vivo when a tumor happens. In this kind of service, the best one is micro-CT, which can provide high-quality image and delicate data. One of the most important things during tumor research is to verify the status of tumors in the model, and we can do that easily through micro-CT.
We focus on high-definition, high-contrast, and finer data analysis, and provide X-ray inspection experimental services based on micro-CT technology. The purpose of our service is to complete the X-ray imaging and data analysis required by customers through a high-precision micro-CT analyzer, provide accurate and clear X-ray image data and analysis with high data capacity, to help the need for X-ray detection for non-invasive internal observation Of researchers complete the research work. Your success is our greatest recognition.
Technology platform
We provide X-ray service powered by SkyScan 1278 from BRUKER. This micro-CT platform is the world's fastest, low-dose, high-resolution X-ray platform, which supports us to provide the best X-ray scanning service. X-ray microcomputed tomography (microCT) can do a good job in detecting and characterizing soft-tissue structures, skeletal abnormalities, and tumors in live animals. MicroCT system gives out high-resolution images, has a rapid data acquisition speed, and the most important, excellent sensitivity to skeletal tissue and good sensitivity to soft tissue. This technology has been tested through studies on mouse lung and bone tumor models. MicroCT is a convenient system for those researchers who need to monitor tumors in small animal models, like mouse. Compared with standard segmentation methods, MicroCT has better grayscale data, better scan quality, and less resolution limitation.
We provide but are not limited to:
- High-resolution images for your report and treatise.
- Short working period powered by rapid data acquisition speed.
- High-quality results on both bones and soft tissue tumors.
Advantages of small animal X-ray imaging service:
- During the long-term research, Small Animal X-Ray Imaging service will provide results in a non-invasively way.
- We can monitor tumor samples in small animal models to verify the effectiveness of the drugs.
We can do furthermore:
- We can also provide data and image analysis to dig out the data you need.
- You can arrange a long-term experience or a short one depending on the specific experiment you need.
- We can offer real-time monitoring to trace the dynamic development of your project.
