vivaCT 40 - Small animal preclinical microtomography scanner
vivaCT 40 is a fast and flexible in-vivo microCT (micro-computed tomography) scanner for preclinical studies. The low X-ray dose allows serial measurements of individuals. Whole-body scans or scans from selected regions of mice can be made, while head and hind limbs of larger rodents can be scanned using beds supplied with the system.
A range of beds for in-vivo use as well as specimen scans are supplied. Access ports through the X-ray shielding are included to aid delivery of anesthetic and connection of cables for physiological monitoring. In addition, optional equipment for anesthesia as well as physiological monitoring and gating are available.
