Unit of Bio-Image Complutense (BIOIMAC)

BioImaC is located on the Moncloa Campus of the Complutense University of Madrid. Among its equipment dedicated to the preclinical image stands out: Magnetic Resonance Imaging equipment at three field intensities, 0.23 Tesla (open MRI for large animals), 1T (7.6 cm in diameter, with possibility of use in self-service mode by researchers who request it), and 4.7 T (40 cm in tunnel diameter, for a wide versatility in the study of different animals, and for spectroscopy in vivo). Micro PET/CT equipment. It also has conventional radiology and fluoroscopy equipment for large animals, and ultrasound equipment, all in a veterinary hospital environment. Likewise, BioImaC has an ex vivo NMR spectroscopy service of biopsies and semi-solid matrices at 11.7 T (HR-MAS probe). Added to this is the availability of accredited facilities for the establishment of small experimental animals, as well as an agreement in force with a private company for access to 18F (cyclotron), and to radiochemical laboratories for the synthesis of PET radiotracers, thus expanding the geographical distribution in terms of availability in open access of radiotracers in different areas of the national territory.
