Pearlcam Online
High-sensitivity detection of signals from within internal organs or deep-seated tumors.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of cancer research, the ability to visualize biological processes in real-time within living organisms is paramount. PearlCAM (and the associated Pearl imaging systems) serves as a bridge between laboratory benchwork and clinical application, providing researchers with a non-invasive look at tumor progression and drug delivery. 🔬 Core Technology PearlCAM
PearlCAM is the proprietary interface used to capture and analyze high-resolution images in the spectrum. Unlike visible light, NIR light can penetrate several centimeters into biological tissue, allowing for: 🔬 Core Technology PearlCAM is the proprietary interface
Before a new cancer drug or imaging agent can be tested on humans, it must be proven effective and safe in animal models. Systems like the LI-COR Pearl Trilogy provide the high-quality data required by regulatory bodies (like the FDA) to move a discovery from the lab to the clinic. Researchers use PearlCAM to test new "smart" dyes
Researchers use PearlCAM to test new "smart" dyes that attach specifically to cancer cells. By viewing the animal through the Pearl system, surgeons can practice identifying tumor margins that would be invisible to the naked eye. Washington University has utilized this for foundations in translational imaging. 2. Drug Delivery Tracking
The workflow for a research team using PearlCAM typically follows three stages:
