About

High Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging Facility (Huck)

Overview of Services

Initially established as the Huck Institutes Magnetic Resonance Centre in 2005, the High Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Facility consists of an Bruker 7 tesla Biospec (AVANCE III HD) and a Bruker (Avance NEO) 14.1 tesla vertical microimaging sytem for in vivo imaging, MR microscopy, and MR spectroscopy. Additionally, the facility contains a Skyscan 1176 and a Skyscan 1276 Micro-computed Tomography (µCT) scanner.

Next to the scanner rooms are animal preparation suites. Each suite has a surgical area equipped with a Summit Anesthesia System, a down/back draft table, a fume hood, and a small animal monitoring system from SAII for ECG, breath, temperature, and blood oxygenation observations. Animal housing is available on the same floor as the MRI systems.
