The system is a staple in laboratories focusing on translational medicine. Key use cases include: 1. Fluorescence-Guided Surgery
Researchers use PearlCAM to test new "smart" dyes that attach specifically to cancer cells. By viewing the animal through the Pearl system, surgeons can practice identifying tumor margins that would be invisible to the naked eye. Washington University has utilized this for foundations in translational imaging. 2. Drug Delivery Tracking PearlCAM
In the rapidly evolving landscape of cancer research, the ability to visualize biological processes in real-time within living organisms is paramount. PearlCAM (and the associated Pearl imaging systems) serves as a bridge between laboratory benchwork and clinical application, providing researchers with a non-invasive look at tumor progression and drug delivery. 🔬 Core Technology The system is a staple in laboratories focusing
Before a new cancer drug or imaging agent can be tested on humans, it must be proven effective and safe in animal models. Systems like the LI-COR Pearl Trilogy provide the high-quality data required by regulatory bodies (like the FDA) to move a discovery from the lab to the clinic. By viewing the animal through the Pearl system,
