| Anesthesia and Workspace |
Counts radioactivity of multiple samples 1 at a time. |
| Bruker 7T MRI |
The Bruker 7T MRI scanner is located in the Hillman Cancer Center animal facility. The 7 Tesla 30-cm USR magnet is equipped with Bruker BGA-12s gradient set capible of 400 mT/m gradient strength. |
| Cryostat |
A cryostat is a specialized refrigerated device that maintains a constant, ultra-low temperature environment to freeze, preserve, and slice biological tissue samples or cool scientific equipment |
| FMT2500 |
3D tomographic fluorescence imaging. |
| Gamma Counter |
A gamma counter is a specialized laboratory instrument used to measure gamma radiation and X-rays emitted from small, sealed test tubes or vials containing radioactive samples |
| Hillman Gallium Generator |
The Gallium Generator can produce small amounts of gallium-68 from its germanium core source. This specific generator is ideal for test labelings, animal imaging, or biodistribution studies with 4 mice or less. |
| Image Analysis Workstations |
There are currently 3 image analysis workstations in Hillman G.12 Office. IRW is avaliable on the PC and Mac workstations. Living image is avalible on the IVIS PC and Mac Workstations. |
| Inveon PET/CT scanner |
Radioactive emission scan provides the location and density of a radioactively tagged molecule, nanoparticle, drugs, chemical, antibody, or receptor targeting agent in 3 dimensions at any time post injection. |
| IVIF Technician Time |
|
| IVIS Lumina X5 |
The IVIS Lumina X5 is a compact benchtop system that combines high-sensitivity optical imaging with high-resolution X-ray for small animal research. |
| IVIS Lumina XR |
Standard 2D X-Ray of full field of view that can be registered with bioluminescence or fluorescence in place of photograph for physiological reference. |
| IVIS200 |
This Calendar is offline because the IVIS200 is currently out of order. Please contact Kate Day (ked63@pitt.edu ) for information on the IVIS Lumina. |
| Radio HPLC |
Radio-HPLC (Radio-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) is an analytical laboratory technique that separates and measures radioactive compounds labeled with isotopes like carbon-14, tritium, or fluorine-18. |
| Radiochemistry Lab |
Radiochemistry lab specialized to safely handle, analyze, and synthesize radioactive materials. |
| VisualSonics Vevo770 Utlrasound |
The VisualSonics Vevo 770 is a high-resolution micro-ultrasound system designed for non-invasive, in vivo research on small animals. |
