Mission

Northwestern University’s Center for Advanced Molecular Imaging (CAMI) was created to drive interdisciplinary research, bridging the gap between basic science and science-based medicine, with an emphasis on in vivo imaging. CAMI provides a wide range of imaging instrumentation and support facilities for molecular imaging of biological events, in intact organisms.  We can also assist with medical image analysis and visualization.

Services Offered

  • High field magnetic resonance imaging (Bruker 9.4T and 7T magnets)
  • Preclinical nuclear imaging (MILabs U-SPECT+/CT and Mediso nanoScan PET/CT)
  • Whole body bioluminescence and fluorescence imaging (IVIS Spectrum)
  • High-resolution in vivo and specimen x-ray microCT (Bruker SkyScan 1276)
  • Atomic force microscopy of live cells (operated by Scanning Probe Imaging and Development Facility)
  • Surgery suite
  • Free vivarium to imaging center transportation
  • Certified Laboratory Animal Technologist (LATG), specializing in preclinical imaging
  • Image analysis and visualization, including the use of our 20 foot 3D wall
