Small animal MRI

9.4 Tesla small animal MRI - Agilent/Varian 20 cm bore

9.4T small animal MRI    

The 9.4T animal MRI system (Agilent) is a flexible and adaptable magnetic resonance imaging scanner for pre-clinical imaging and research. The system has an intuitive user interface and a flexible programming environment and can carry out a wide range of pre-clinical imaging functions.

The ultra high magnetic field provides structural and functional images with higher resolution in comparison with clinical MRI. It can be used for brain, abdominal, cardiovascular, muscular and articular, as well as dynamic molecular imaging.

Horizontal Bore Magnet with 205/120 Gradient Coil

  • 1H 63/108 mm coil designed as a standard 16-element coil with 6 cm sample diameter, which is suitable for small animals imaging
  • 20 mm surface coil kit includes: * A 20 mm surface coil 1H-19F (370-420 MHz) * A 20 mm surface coil 31P-13C (75-170MHz) * A 20 mm surface coil 2H-15N (39-82MHz). The coil design is a single-loop or multiple-loop with 20 mm diameter, suitable for small animal MRI/MRS applications
  • 1H 72/119 mm volume Coil
  • 1H phased array coil for rat heart with integrated low noise and high input impedance preamplifiers
