Description
Optical imaging has emerged as a key biomedical research tool to spatiotemporally and non-invasively monitor biological processes in living animals. The IVIS offers researchers the capability to image multiple fluorescent and bioluminescent reporters at the same time within the same animal.  This multi-reporter approach is particularly useful when attempting to gain insights into multiple physiological outcomes, giving researchers a comprehensive, multi-faceted perspective on the disease, its mechanisms and therapeutic strategies.
