World's highest-field MRI system provides leading disease biology research capabilities

Bruker Corporation announced the commissioning of a novel BioSpec™ 18 Tesla preclinical MRI, the world's highest-field horizontal-bore MRI system, at the Champalimaud Foundation in Lisbon, Portugal. The BioSpec 18T system provides increased spatial resolution and sensitivity, enabling advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) methods for cancer and neuroscience research, where characterization of tissue microstructure, and localized metabolism and dynamics are critical.
