Description:

At the Longwood Small Animal Imaging Facility (SAIF), our mission is to provide state-of-the-art small animal imaging services to researchers in the Longwood Medical Area of Harvard Medical School, as well as external academic and corporate researchers. To that end, we have designed a dynamic facility to provide multi-modality imaging, advanced data analysis, image fusion resources, custom chemistry, and a satellite animal facility for longitudinal studies.
