Sackler Cellular and Molecular Imaging Center
MRI 4.7T
The MRI 4.7T system provides high-resolution/high-throughput imaging, using tailored MRI pulse sequences and dedicated RF coils to optimize Signal-to-Noise ratios. The system offers small animal MRI solutions for preclinical and molecular MR imaging research, enabling the acquisition of anatomical images and parametric mapping and functional imaging. Physiological monitoring including maintenance of body temperature, cardiac and respiratory gating systems are utilized. The magnets provide state-of-the-art high resolution anatomical and functional imaging of various models in cardiovascular, oncology and neuro-research settings, allowing investigations into new molecularly targeted MRI imaging agents. The system is equipped with isoflurane anesthesia and monitoring system enabling respiratory/cardiac gating.
