Imaging Function, Physiology and Anatomy for Research and Drug Discovery

GE Healthcare is now applying its leading clinical imaging technology to research tools for non-invasive small animal, or preclinical, imaging in order to deliver superior solutions for Molecular Imaging research. The eXplore series scanners includes the Locus micro-computed tomography (micro CT) for in vivo imaging, Locus SP micro CT for specimen imaging, Locus Ultra micro CT for dynamic imaging and Vista for small animal PET imaging.

Together with the appropriate powerful and easy-to-use software, the eXplore small animal scanners can now provide researchers with the ability to acquire anatomical and functional images of in vivo disease models and intact tissue specimens at very high resolutions.
