TriTom™ Photoacoustic Imaging Platform: Small Animal Anatomical Imaging The ability to directly visualize and evaluate anatomical structures and biological processes in small animal models at the whole-body level is critical for understanding the pathophysiology of human diseases. The TriTom™ small animal imaging platform provides noninvasive high-resolution photoacoustic tomography (PAT) images that can be used to extract functional and […]

COMMERCIAL SMALL ANIMAL IMAGING COULD AID DISEASE DETECTION
Authors: Mark Little ABSTRACT The development of anticancer metastatic therapies for human clinical trials requires meticulous evaluation of efficacy and optimization of small animal test models in preclinical experimentation. Critical information on morphology and the molecular microenvironment of tumors is currently obtained and monitored using noninvasive, in vivo imaging methods. Detection of individual, small tumors […]
A PRECLINICAL SMALL ANIMAL IMAGING PLATFORM COMBINING MULTI-ANGLE PHOTOACOUSTIC AND FLUORESCENCE PROJECTIONS INTO CO-REGISTERED 3D MAPS
Authors: Weylan Thompson, Anthony Yu, Diego S. Dumani, Jason Cook, Mark A. Anastasio, Stanislav Y. Emelianov, Sergey A. Ermilov ABSTRACT We present the results on development of the 3D imaging platform combining photoacoustic tomography and fluorescence (PAFT) for preclinical and biological research. This combined multimodal imaging instrument addresses known deficiencies in sensitivity, spatial resolution, and […]
