Small Animal MRI
Who We Are
The Small Animal MRI Core provides quantitative imaging capabilities using MRI for small animals. The core provides data acquisition, analysis, user training, custom software development and radiofrequency coil building. Services ranges from providing raw images to scientific collaborations, including the development of imaging and image analysis methods, as well the preparation of manuscripts and grant applications. The MRI techniques provided include, but are not limited to, relaxometry, diffusion tensor imaging, perfusion-weighted imaging, functional MRI, cardiac imaging, manganese-enhanced MRI, chemical exchange saturation transfer MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Image analysis methods include data visualization, registration, segmentation and parametric map calculations.
