Mammals, especially rodents, are the most common animal models used in research related to human health and disease. BriteVu is used to understand normal gross and microscopic vascular anatomy as well as a large variety of disease states such as cancer, diabetes, infections, atherosclerosis, aneurysms, stroke, genetic disorders and more. By seeing the blood vessels, one can study tissue growth, death and reaction to internal (genetic, hormonal, etc) and external (toxins, trauma, etc) factors - BriteVu helps make ‘seeing’ the otherwise hidden vessels possible.
