Molecular Imaging Core
The Molecular Imaging Core provides comprehensive services for non-invasive imaging with a 7-T Magnetic Resonance Imager (MRI) and a MicroPET (Positron Emission Tomography). These instruments can be used to image small animals, biological tissues, phantoms, appendages of human subjects, and many other samples.
