Trifoil InSyTe FLECT-CT tomographic optical imaging system

The InSyTe from Trifoil provides true 360° tomographic optical preclinical imaging. This enables researchers to perform in vivo imaging of small animals in a compact, powerful benchtop system. The capabilities match that of nuclear imaging modalities such as PET and SPECT.

The product allows the user to capture true 3D tomographic images by acquiring projection images from all around the animal. These images can be compiled to create detailed 3D reconstructions. The resultant tomographic images provide valuable insights into deep tissue phenomena with uniform sensitivity and resolution throughout the entire animal.

The system comes with a fully integrated inline X-ray CT. The CT enables a better understanding of the user’s data through anatomical registration. CT has good soft-tissue performance, which is said to improve auto segmentation of the optical images. The system automatically co-registers optical and CT images for improved accuracy.

The InSyTe range also offers the nuclear imaging modalities SPECT and PET with X-ray CT.
