VisualSonics' Vevo 3100

VisualSonics' Vevo 3100 ultrasound provides a method for efficiently viewing extremely small physiological structures and for imaging living tissue and blood flow in near-microscopic resolution of up to 70 MHz. The system is non-invasive, offers spatial resolution down to 30 µm.

The Vevo 3100 applications:

  • Non-invasive, in vivo visualization of embryonic stages from E5.5 and through to adult mice in real-time.
  • Ability to perform longitudinal studies of disease progression and regression in individual subjects.
  • Ability to image cardiovascular function and structure in 3D and 4D
  • Image resolution of anatomical and physiological structures of down to 30 µm.
  • Ability to visualize ultrasound-guided needle injection and extraction.
  • Microcirculatory and cardiovascular blood flow assessment-Doppler modes.
  • Monitor full animal physiology through the imaging session

Vevo Integrated Rail System

The integrated rail system allows for quick set-up, alignment and adjustment of the RMV (Real-time micro-visualization) transducer and the injection system (for image-guided injection applications). The transducer receives and transmits high-resolution real-time ultrasound signals - at resolutions down to 30 µm. The heated table allows the researcher to secure the mouse quickly and ensure optimal comfort for the duration of the imaging session.
