Bioimaging is a rapidly advancing field of research with a unique potential. In parallel, the need for competitive bioimaging infrastructures has emerged at major universities. The equipment associated with advanced and up-to-date bioimaging, as well as requirements for maintenance, staff expertise and data handling impose a necessity to regard bioimaging as a common interest for a whole universit

Electron microscopy is the process of greatly magnifying tiny particles in order to see and analyse them. The use of electrons allows 10.000 x plus magnification, which is not possible using light microscopy and atomic resolution. In general, electron microscopy can yield the following information:Topography: the surface features of an object or "how it looks"Morphology: the shape and size of the

The techniques commonly used within the field of nuclear medicine are non-invasive methods for imaging of biochemical, morphological and physiological processes in vivo. X-ray computed tomography (CT) is commonly used for anatomical imaging, while nuclear imaging, such as Positron emission tomography (PET) and Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are used for molecular visualizations

We have an imaging lab with three different systems: µPET/CT, µSPECT/CT, Ultra-high resolution µCT. These systems can be used for both in vivo and in vitro imaging. PET PET scans are acquired following administration of a radiotracer. The radiotracer accumulates in the tissue to be studied, and its radionuclide decays by emission of a positron (anti-electron). After travelling at most a few millim
