Optical Imaging
The laboratory has a Xenogen IVIS 200 imaging system which has brought physics and biology together for the practice of real-time in vivo imaging. It is one of the most highly sensitized imaging systems on the market. This IVISŪ Imaging System includes a sensitive CCD camera, a dark imaging chamber to minimize incident light, and specialized software to quantify and analyze the results. The IVISŪ Imaging Systems are currently being used for genomics, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical product research and development. Data gathered from animal models based on the real-time in vivo imaging technology allow researchers to better understand the mechanisms of diseases and drug effects.
