Researchers at Johns Hopkins developed a new imaging technique that allows them to view the vasculature of experimental animals in great detail. Research into a variety of conditions, from vascular disease to cancer, relies on acquiring images of the vasculature in animals, with a variety of imaging techniques available. These researchers have created a unique blend of polymer contrast agents which can be perfused into the vasculature, permitting imaging using optical microscopy, MRI, and computed tomography (CT). The combined imaging…
