Delighted to be attending the Fusion Conferences Animal Models of Cancer Conference in Lisboa Portugal. Dr Ian Miller of NPIC (National Preclinical Imaging Centre) will be presenting a poster on Wednesday. Come say hello. #AMC23

Our #AMC23 poster presenters have just given their flash introductions, and we’re so excited to hear more at tomorrows poster session!

Dr Ian Miller of NPIC (National Preclinical Imaging Centre) and Physiology RCSI presents data describing the novel double contrast method for detection and monitoring of orthotopic mCRC in rodent models by CE-CT. Say hello at poster 18 at the Fusion Conferences Animal models conference in Lisboa, Portugal #AMC23

Interesting recent article from @ShoghiLab at WashUMedMIR discussing the lack of standardization of metadata in preclinical imaging and how this it needs to be improved. This severely hinders open science and impacts reproducibility of imaging research. mdpi.com/2379-139X/9/3/…

Interesting protocol by Behrens lab in ICR for the investigation of lung nodules by CT. This is a simple to implement and noninvasive method for accurate identification of lung tumor nodules. Useful in a wide range of genetic or therapeutic interventions. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Brilliant review from Prof. Magdalena Król's group (Institute of Biology, Warsaw, Poland) showing non-radioisotope methods of immune cell tracking in pre-clinical models. A worthy read for those lacking PET facilities or not wishing to use radioactivity. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Another exciting week here in NPIC (National Preclinical Imaging Centre) with the first scans on the new Bruker 9.4T MRI in UCD Research. Looking forward to more scans and new interesting projects. Contact us for more information npic.ie

Brilliant review from the lab of Twan Lammers in RWTH Aachen detailing the use of the various nanoparticle imaging agents in preclinical imaging. They discuss the use of them as purely an imaging agent or for use in theranostics. jnm.snmjournals.org/content/63/12/…

µCT has an enormous yet unexploited potential for preclinical lung research. An excellent review from Greetje Vande Velde lab from KU Leuven looks at advances in longitudinal µCT and image driven biomarkers in preclincal research in lung diseases. A worthy read. mdpi.com/2075-4418/10/9…

So you have discovered some great pre-clincial MRI biomarkers, the next step is translation to the clinic. Here @davidhormuth and colleagues from Oden Institute at UT Austin discuss this exact problem and the steps to overcome for clinical translation. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jm…

Thanks to everyone from Cancer Trials Cork TUHCancerTrials Irish Research Radiation Oncology Group (SLRON) Cancer Trials Mater & Follow @HSEMidWest who attended our GCP training! Much learning and experience shared!! 🙏🙏

Many molecular imaging probes for small animal imaging offer a lot. However the question is now what makes a good small molecule imaging probe. This and other questions are answered in this excellent white paper by RanLab et al from Mass General Imaging link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Here at NPIC (National Preclinical Imaging Centre) we have spent an inordinate amount of time segmenting images. However this article by the Macha Nikolski lab in CNRS 🌍 University of Bordeaux shows a potential deep learning model which will enable auto-segmentation of the pulmonary system. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

A huge thank you goes out to Olivia Prior (Olivia Prior 🌸) from Radiomics Group for coming to Physiology RCSI and helping us out with our preclinical radiomic analysis. A very productive visit. Let us know if you need any assistance in preclincial imaging!

Preclinical imaging brings unique challenges that emphasize the gap between man and mouse and are most evident in co-clinical trials. Cristian Badea (Cristian Badea) and his team Duke University School of Medicine are bridging the translational gap in this excellent article. journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

For the weekend, an excellent review article from Prof Marc Kachelrieß lab DKFZ discussing the advancements in CT imaging with a view to molecular imaging CT and photon counting CTs. CT is for more than just antomical/bone imaging! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Great recent review from CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche looking at the use of radiomics and radiogenomics in preclinical studies. Their methodologies in the preclinical field represents a step forward in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of a disease. mdpi.com/2075-4426/13/8…

Fascinating review from the @grimmrad lab at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center re: Cerenkov imaging in preclinical research and its translation to the clinic. Worthy read to anyone interested in molecular imaging. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

A really interesting review by Cynthia McCollough and team from Mayo Clinic about photon counting detector CT. Really a fundamental guide of of its development and its use. A weekend read! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Interesting review from Isabel Dennahy and University of Oklahoma Research discussing Image-guided nanotheranostics. Image-guided nanotheranostics could harness the precision of modern imaging techniques and use this to direct, dictate, and follow site-specific drug delivery. mdpi.com/1999-4923/14/5…
