Functional Connectivity MRI of the Rat Brain
5 Dec 2014In contrast to fMRI, fcMRI does not rely on stimulation and can probe brain networks that are not accessible through external stimuli. It also takes on the key advantages of MRI regarding non-invasiveness and suitability for longitudinal studies. This application note evaluates the feasibility and potential of fcMRI applied to imaging of the rat brain using a high field, small animal MRI system.

In Vivo Imaging Systems<i>In vivo</i> imaging systems, including pre-clinical imaging systems and medical imaging systems are used to non-invasively visualize and capture images of live animals and plants. Monitor the natural processes or diseases of your subjects using small-animal pre-clinical imaging systems, including single photon positron emission tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (micro-CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray radiography, ultrasound, fluorescence and bioluminescence imagers. Multimodal systems and software solutions are also available for correlative analysis of organ, tissue, cell, or molecular-level processes.
