Optical Imaging System for Small and Large Animal Imaging

The Solaris quantitative optical molecular imaging system from PerkinElmer Inc. is a preclinical solution for use in small and large animal studies will help to advance drug discovery and translational research to develop and validate molecular-guided surgical research protocols. The Solaris system, when combined with PerkinElmer’s suite of fluorescence molecular imaging probes, can bridge molecular imaging research techniques to support potential clinical outcomes. By distinguishing healthy versus diseased tissue in real-time, researchers can more accurately and completely map tumors. The Solaris system is designed for ambient lighting conditions found in preclinical surgical research suites and can dynamically use a broad and versatile range of fluorescent probes, offering flexibility for translational researchers when targeting diseases. Its research applications include drug efficacy, drug safety, measurement of real-time biological therapeutic responses and advanced molecular-guided surgery applications such as surgical tumor margin determination in live animal models.
