Product news

MR Solutions has launched a complete range of advanced PET/CT preclinical imaging systems at EANM ‘19, (European Association of Nuclear Medicine). The range comprising four models, including a small benchtop PET/CT, can accommodate small animals up to 12 kg.

The PET sub system is based on MR Solution’s proprietary clip on technology and is compatible with all of MR’s range of MRI systems – up to 9.4T - and CT systems. This does away with the need to buy two PET systems.

The CT sub-systems are self-shielded and have a zoom functionality allowing to reach 5 microns resolution.
Fabrice Chaumard, MR Solution’s sales and marketing director commented, “We were quite stunned at the welcome our new range of PET/CT imaging systems received and are now following up not only leads but firm enquiries. Our multi-modality pre-clinical imaging systems are completely interchangeable, and this is generating a lot of interest and excitement within the nuclear medicine sector.”

The combination of PET and CT imaging not only shows body structures but also metabolic changes in an organ or tissue at the cellular level. This provides researchers with a much more detailed image for quantification and translational studies and is particularly beneficial for viewing changes in a range of therapy areas such as oncology.
As well as the range of four PET/CT imaging systems MR Solutions showcased its MRS*PET/CT benchtop with its motorized bed. This provides sub-millimeter precision and allows the animal to be scanned without manual intervention from the operator.

MR Solutions’ preclinical imaging systems won the prestigious Queen’s Awards for Enterprise for Innovation in 2016 and 2019. The company has over 30 years’ experience and in excess of 2000 installations across the world. Its unique liquid helium free MRI scanners are renowned for their excellence in terms of superior soft tissue contrast and molecular imaging quality.

X-Ray Diffraction and SpectroscopyX-Ray diffraction & spectroscopy are used in material characterization to discern the structure and elemental composition of a sample. X-Ray diffractometers (XRD) are superior instruments in elucidating the dimensional atomic structure of crystalline materials, including powders, thin films and single crystals. For large unit cells or ordered macromolecules, consider small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). X-ray spectroscopic techniques include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), both providing simple and accurate methods for determining the elemental composition of a material. Energy dispersive (EDXRF) and wavelength dispersive (WDXRF) XRF spectrometers are available, as well as handheld/portable devices. High-resolution, 3D microstructure characterization of materials can be achieved with X-ray microscopes combining sub-micron resolution imaging with 3D computed tomography.

Monitor the natural processes or diseases of your subjects using small-animal pre-clinical imaging systems, including single photon positron emission tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (micro-CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray radiography, ultrasound, fluorescence and bioluminescence imagers. Multimodal systems and software solutions are also available for correlative analysis of organ, tissue, cell, or molecular-level processes.
