General
- Biomedical
imaging refers to methods that open new ways to see the body’s inner
workings, measure biological functions, and evaluate cellular and
molecular events using less invasive procedures. While X-ray imaging
is a familiar example, it represents only one aspect of this fast
growing field.
- Advanced,
multimodal imaging techniques, powered by new computational methods,
are changing the face of biology and medicine. These new imaging
modalities produce information about anatomical structure that is
linked to functional data, as described by electric and magnetic
fields, mechanical motion, and metabolism.
Bio-Imaging
- An Institute is
developing a coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS)
spectroscopy/microscopy system for direct chemical imaging in
biological systems. Imaging modalities in biological systems
generally can be divided into two classifications: whole body
where contrast is sought in macro-scale systems (i.e., organs to
organisms) and cellular where contrast at micrometer (and less)
length scales are used to probe specific regions within cellular
structures.
- Automated
tracking and analysis of moving objects in image sequences has been
and continues to be one of the major themes in digital image
analysis research. Currently the most important imaging tool for
studying dynamic processes in living cells still is light
microscopy. The development of new bioimaging technologies such as
current distribution MRI and conductivity MRI potentially enables us
to understand the dynamics of brain functions
Technology
- The Aequorea
victoria green fluorescent protein (GFP) is widely recognized as a
powerful tool in cell biology, serving as a vital reporter for
monitoring localization and dynamics of intracellular proteins and
organelles over time. An instrument that can gather information on a
Tissue engineered medical products( TEMP) using multiple imaging
modalities was constructed.
- Three dimensional
(3D) molecular imaging SIMS is achieved by acquiring a series of
characteristic molecular secondary ion images as a function of
increasing depth during dynamic SIMS sputtering of thin molecular
films using cluster primary ion bombardment. Reconstruction of the
resulting image stack provides a 3D volumetric image of the
molecular composition of the sample.
Market
- Collectively, the
various imaging modalities and accessories generated $1.65 billion
in 2004 and – with an average annual growth rate of 11% – revenues
should reach $2.77 billion in 2009, according to the Trimark report.
Excluding accessories, the growth rate is 11.6% such that revenues
should approach $2.5 billion by 2009.
- The Market
Overview delves into the trends of imaging technologies as they
relate to sales and advances within the imaging arena. The United
States accounted for the largest share, representing one-third of
the market. Japan made up 20% of the market, while other Asian
countries represented 16%. The European Union accounted for a share
of 18%.
