Exciting Expansion in Preclinical Photoacoustic Imaging with VisualSonics Technology

Join us for a groundbreaking webinar exploring the future of photoacoustic imaging, both as a field and through the lens of FUJIFILM VisualSonics technology.

This session features a compelling introduction by a leading expert in photoacoustics, Dr. Stanislav Emelianov (Georgia Institute of Technology), the latest updates on our advanced photoacoustic imaging solutions, and a live demonstration from our Toronto imaging lab. Discover how our cutting-edge innovations can propel your preclinical research in areas like molecular imaging, oncology, liver disease, and more!

Key Topics:

  • Introduction to a new photoacoustic imaging solution - the Vevo LAZR-X20
  • Enhanced image quality for easy visualization and quantification of oxygen saturation in vivo
  • Benefits of an expanded photoacoustic wavelength range for imaging endogenous and exogenous molecular signals

LIVE Lab Demonstration (please contact us to access the demo): Experience the latest advancements in photoacoustic imaging in real-time. We will demonstrate the accurate assessment of oxygen levels in vivo and the visualization and quantification of both endogenous and exogenous agents in the body.
