7.0 t small animal mri system

Manufactured by Agilent Technologies
Sourced in United States

The 7.0 T small-animal MRI system is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device designed for small animal research applications. It provides a high-field strength of 7.0 Tesla, enabling high-resolution imaging of small subjects such as rodents and other small laboratory animals. The system is optimized for delivering consistent and reliable imaging data to support research studies.

Small-Animal 7.0-T MRI CEST Imaging

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All MRI studies were performed using a 7.0-T small-animal MRI system (Agilent Technologies, USA) with a 160-mm bore magnet and a standard body coil. In CEST imaging experiments, we utilized an echo planar imaging (EPI) readout sequence with a frequency-selective continuous wave saturation pulse.

Quantifying Body Composition in Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In the middle of the 13th week, proportions of the body fat and skeletal muscle in mice were analyzed by MRI. Briefly, mice were anesthetized by oxygen with 2% isoflurane at a flow rate of 1 L/min, and then scanned using a 7.0 T small animal MRI system (Agilent, Palo Alto, CA, USA). The images were captured with a T1-spin echo multislice sequence as follows: field of view =96.7 × 58.6 mm, no slices =34, slice thickness =0.6 mm (zero slice gap), repetition time =665.99 ms, echo time =13.44 ms, image matrix = 256 × 256, number of averages =6. The images were analyzed by Inveon Research Workplace 4.2 (Siemens, Germany), and percentages of the body fat and hindlimb skeletal muscle in mice were calculated.

7T MRI Volumetric Analysis of Tspan7-/- Rats

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The MRI examination was performed on an 7.0 T small-animal MRI system (Varian). During imaging, WT and Tspan7−/− rats (n = 6/group) were anesthetized with medical oxygen (1 Liter/min) containing 2% isoflurane. T2-weighted MRI images in the coronal plane were acquired with a fast spin echo (fsems) sequence with following parameters: FOV (field of view) = 35 × 35 mm; no slices = 20; slice thickness = 1 mm (zero slice gap); TR (repetition time) = 3,500 ms; TE (echo time) = 18.0 ms; image matrix = 256 × 256; and number of averages = 10. Volumes (region of the cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum, and cerebrum of WT and Tspan7−/− rats) were then drawn on the T2 images to determine the change of volumes (Vnmrj; Varian).

In Vivo MRI Analysis of Rodent Brains

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed on a 7.0 T small animal MRI system (Varian, Palo Alto, CA, USA). For imaging, wild‐type and model rats (n = 4/group) were anesthetized with medical oxygen (1 L/min) containing 2% isoflurane. Fast spin‐echo (fsems) sequences were used to acquire coronal T2‐weighted MRI images with the following parameters: field of view = 35 × 35 mm; no. of slices = 20; slice thickness = 1 mm (zero slice gap); TR (repetition time) = 3000 ms; TE (echo time) = 18.0 ms; image matrix = 256 × 256; average = 10. Interesting regoins, such as corpus callosum, cortex, hippocampus, and ventricles, were plotted on T2 images to determine changes in signal intensity.

In Vivo 7.0-T Small-Animal MRI Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In vivo animal MRI was performed using a 7.0-T small-animal MRI system (Varian, Palo Alto, CA, USA). During imaging, the rats were anesthetized with medical oxygen (0.6 liter/min) containing 2% isoflurane. T2-weighted MRI images in coronal plane were acquired with a fast spin echo (fsems) sequence using the following parameters: FOV (field of view) = 35 by 35 mm; no slices = 20; slice thickness = 1 mm (zero slice gap); TR (repetition time) = 3500 ms; TE (echo time) = 18.0 ms; image matrix = 256 by 256; number of averages = 10.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
