Preclinical MRI Center is fully operational. We strive to provide in vivo imaging support for biomedical research at SBU. We encourage a wide range of collaborations between various groups to explore new imaging techniques, novel imaging contrast agents, or new applications in various research fields. It houses two state-of-the-art animal scanners:
-
Bruker 7.0 Tesla MRI
-
Bruker 9.4 Tesla MRI
-
Computational infrastructure to assist image analysis
-
High-resolution PET insert for simultaneous MRI-PET study
-
Supportive infrastructure
Preclinical MRI Center underwrites all development costs for promising and fundable projects and helps analzye data. For limited time, SOM provides matching fund to support pilot/feasibility studies @ little to no costs to investigators. For limited time, SB Cancer Center provides matching fund to support pilot/feasibility studies @ little to no costs to investigators.
