Applications
[18]F imaging using β-eye™
Free F-18 accumulating in bones. Image acquired at BIOEMTECH preclinical laboratories. Image info: 1h post injection acquisition, 10 min static scan. Total injected dose: 70 uCi / 2.59 MBq
Applications
[18]F-FDG imaging with wild-type zebra fish, using β-eye™
In this very exciting case, wild-type, adult zebrafish were injected intravenously or intraperitoneally with several 18F-FDG activities and imaged on β-eye™ benchtop PET tracer imaging system. Acquisitions were conducted right after injection, with a 6-8 minutes study duration. Brain, heart, swimming bladder, and point of injection were easily distinguishable in acquisitions of animals injected intravenously. Here, we present an example of an adult zebrafish injected intravenously with 0.16 MBq / 4.25 uCi and imaged right after injection. The study duration was equal to 6 minutes. This work was conducted in collaboration with Dr. Vasiliki Tsata , from the Biomedical Research Foundation of the Academy of Athens.
