Medical Imaging for Infectious Disease Research

Medical Imaging for Infectious Disease Research

You already know that using medical imaging in your infectious disease research can help lead to new knowledge and speed discovery. But in BSL-2, -3 or -4 level environments, you face the challenge of decontaminating a technologically advanced imaging system without harming sensitive materials or components.

 

Now there’s a better way to do it—with Philips BioShield™ from the leader in bio-contained medical imaging for research.

The BioShield family of modified diagnostic imaging systems and containment solutions is a way to implement medical imaging in your lab. It offers excellent protection of equipment, enables equipment servicing by OEM specialists, and it allows decontamination with widely accepted agents.

Reap the rewards of medical imaging. 

 

BioShield expands your capabilities to study the host-pathogen relationship by using MR, PET/CT, SPECT/CT, CT or X-ray. It adds the power of advanced diagnostic imaging to your infectious disease research toolkit, delivering:

• An expanded data set including unique, new information and more frequent measurements.
• In vivo observation of disease progression and the host response to intervention.
• Research that translates faster from the lab to clinical settings.
• The potential to lower the number of research subjects needed and the overall operational costs of your lab.

 

BioShield overcomes the obstacles of using clinical imaging for research in BSL labs.
