MRI workstations to be upgraded
CAMI’s MRI systems will receive an upgrade in the form of new control software (Paravision 6) and faster workstations, thanks to an internal equipment grant from NU’s Office for Research. The new software and workstations will allow more robust and efficient data collection, and an improved user experience.
Congratulations to MRI user Adam Preslar
on the publication of his new manuscript, “Gd(III)-Labeled Peptide Nanofibers for Reporting on Biomaterial Localization in Vivo” in ACS Nano. Adam’s work shows that novel Gd(III) labeled self-assembling peptide amphiphiles can be tracked with MRI over the course of several days.
SPECT major equipment grant funded
CAMI is excited to announce that Prof. Ming Zhao’s NIH S10 equipment grant for a SPECT/CT scanner has been funded! The MILabs U-SPECT+/CT will be placed in CAMI, and is expected to be installed in early July of 2014 and will become available to users by late summer. Please contact Chad Haney if you are interested in using this instrument.
