TriTom Photoacoustic Imager

The TriTom imaging platform provides Photoacoustic Fluorescence Tomography (PAFT) for whole body imaging and in vivo characterization of small animal models. It utilizes simultaneous spectrally selective optical and photoacoustic excitation and detection to create unparalleled volumetric assessment of live organisms, organs and tissues. The platform provides 3D high-resolution robust anatomical registration of optical biomarkers while maintaining high molecular sensitivity. A broad spectrum of preclinical research applications include cancer, toxicology, tissue engineering and regeneration, cardiovascular and developmental biology.
