Localization of Subcutaneous, Intraperitoneal, and Satellite Tumors Utilizing an Animal Rotation Device in a Multimodal Imaging System

2 Feb 2011

This application note by Carestream Molecular Imaging demonstrates the utility of an animal rotation device for improving visualisation and quantitation of fluorescently labelled tumours with non-invasive in vivo imaging. Data collection at multiple angles, allows the optimal position for visualisation to be determined. The system is also analysed for its ability to facilitate detection of low-level tumours which may otherwise go undetected at standard imaging positions.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins.

Explore a range of a gel imaging systems, densitometers, scanners, transilluminators or UV lamp + CCD cameras for your image analysis solutions. Colorimetric, fluorescent and/or radioisotopic samples can be visualized and documented for further analysis. See gel doc / Image analysis software for quantitative 1D and 2D analysis of your samples.
