Details
Berlin Experimental Radionuclide Imaging Center (BERIC)


In-vivo small animal imaging plays an increasingly important role in preclinical and translational research, because imaging
allows to non-invasively generate functional and morphological data in longitudinal imaging series within one animal. BERIC
offers high-resolution anatomical imaging in combination with quantitative functional radionuclide imaging by using hybrid
imaging systems such as positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in case of small animal PET/MRI
and single photon emission tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT) in case of small animal SPECT/CT.
