Easy to prepare and perfuse into the vasculature

Our research group used BriteVu to visualize cerebral blood vessels in rats down to the 50 micron level for use in developing a more complete finite element model of the brain.  The BriteVu solution was easy to prepare and perfuse into the vasculature, taking about 30 minutes start to finish to get the animal ready to scan.  CT revealed beautiful casting of vascular spaces whose high contrast images were easily segmented into a 3D geometry.  Scarlet Imaging’s president, Dr. Scott Echols, was incredibly helpful and responsive in helping us develop our perfusion and imaging technique and developing it into our computational model.
