Preclinical Imaging

Preclinical imaging² is the most powerful and clinically translational method for monitoring disease progression. In vivo imaging of animal models has been a benefit in the fields of molecular imaging¹ and drug development³. This methodology has had a dramatic impact in assessing anatomical, functional, and molecular biomarkers in disease. The ultimate in preclinical versatility and robust high-end imaging subsystems, the nanoScan family is a valuable tool accelerating discoveries in a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines: Cardiovascular, Neuroscience, and Oncology.

Since 1990, Mediso has been fully engaged in the development and manufacturing of nuclear imaging systems. This experience along with the spirit of innovation has resulted in the industry’s highest preforming and most successful line of PET/SPECT/CT/MR preclinical scanners.

Upgrades

The investment into the nanoScan preclinical imaging systems is secure with a comprehensive array of upgrades. Whether you are adding an imaging subsystem to a single modality system, upgrading the PET ring, or adding SPECT detectors, upgrading is conveniently achieved in-field with minimum downtime. Optional accessories further expand the functionality of the nanoScan to grow along with your preclinical imaging program.

The Mediso legacy NanoSPECT/CT® and NanoPET™/CT systems are also protected investments with the Silver upgrade. This upgrade path keeps your system at the latest level of performance and output.
