Molecular Imaging
If you can see it, you should be able to treat it.
Molecular imaging allows the noninvasive monitoring and visualization of living biological systems in real time. It involves administering specific biomarkers or radiolabeled probes into living organisms for characterization and quantification of biological processes or for pathological diagnosis at the cellular or subcellular level, by image generation.
Molecular imaging involves minimally-invasive quantitative measurement of biological processes in vivo, complementing biosample-based analyses. It can provide unique insight into disease processes and guide precision oncology, ranging from improved diagnosis to monitoring treatment response.
BIOEMTECH’s Molecular Imaging Laboratories cover activities like:
- Live, whole body, planar dynamic screening of mice for SPECT and PET isotopes (eyesTM, BIOEMTECH)
- Tomographic imaging with SPECT/CT (g-CUBE & X-CUBE, MOLECUBES)
- Tomographic imaging with PET (β-eyeTomo, BIOEMTECH)
- Optical Imaging (φ-eye, BIOEMTECH)
- Advanced Post Processing
- Quantification of imaging data
By combining BIOEMTECH’s imaging systems in an experiment, we create Fast Screening Protocols (screening of multiple compounds with 5′ scans each – allowing for up to 40 scans per day).
