Animage is committed to the diagnosis and clinical application of animal imaging, and has created the world's first CT, DR, and Fluoroscopy trinity machine in the veterinary field - FIDEX. FIDEX covers almost all animal species, from rats and rabbits to pigs, dogs, monkeys, etc. FIDEX was first launched in California, USA in 2010. Today, the product has been sold to the United States, Hong Kong, Canada, France and other parts of the world.
FIDEX can fully scan the following anatomical areas: head, spine, joints, soft tissue and bones.
Field of view size: Animals are generally smaller than humans. FIDEX’s compact scanner is able to resolve a field of view of 24 cm in diameter and a scanning area of up to 60 cm in length, with high spatial resolution, making it suitable for scanning the physiological structures of smaller animals.
Ease of use and image quality: FIDEX is a volumetric scanner with equally high resolution in sagittal and coronal axial slices (isotropic). Medical CT scanners have limited multiplanar reconstruction capabilities due to the large scan width required.
Space and power requirements: FIDEX takes up half the space of a medical CT scanner and consumes 1/10 the power of a medical CT scanner. Compared to a pure medical CT scanner, FIDEX with CT, DR and fluoroscopic C-arm is more cost-effective.
Maintenance cost: The later maintenance cost of FIDEX scanner is much lower than that of medical CT.
Scanning speed: It takes 10 seconds to rotate 360 degrees to obtain 1024 layers of images, which can obtain volumetric images including the entire organ or part of the body.
Computed Tomography (CT):
Suitable for various experimental animals including rats, rabbits, cats, dogs, monkeys, pigs, etc.
CT is a major medical imaging modality and an irreplaceable tool for neurological, oncological and orthopedic imaging. CT has also become an important means and standard for staging tumors and assessing response.
The research scope covers angiography (bone vasculature, tissue vasculature, angiogenesis, perfusion research), tumor models (tumor metastasis, tumor volume analysis, etc.), tissue enhancement imaging (organs, muscles, fat), and transgenic animal model research.
FIDEX provides the latest imaging mode of CT - cone beam tomography;
The FIDEX gantry can acquire 1024 layers of images in one rotation in 10 seconds, and can obtain volumetric images including the entire organ or part of the body;
FIDEX provides three video sizes, 8cm/15cm/23cm in diameter, with a scanning length of 8cm per step and a maximum scanning length of 54cm, which can cover the abdomen of an 80kg German Shepherd.
Exxim Computer Corporation's reconstruction software (COBRA) is certified by more than 2,000 companies worldwide.
Powerful CORBA image processing tools:
ROI management tool - supports selecting multiple regions of interest for analysis on a sample at the same time. 3D ROI can be segmented, merged and displayed in different ways (color, transparency) at any area.
Real-time display of multi-dimensional images - the volume image and its coronal, sagittal and cross-sectional plane images are displayed simultaneously on a single screen, which is convenient for adjustment and multi-angle observation.
Render Volume - Reproduces volumetric images of bones with user-defined color, brightness, and transparency, effectively enhancing the three-dimensional imaging effect of contrast agents.
Isosurface reconstruction and stitching - Reconstruct a 3D model of any selected 3D shape, and display isosurface models of different colors and degrees of transparency in a single 3D image, which is suitable for simultaneous imaging of different tissues such as blood vessels, tumors, heart, and bones.
Video Recording - For any of the above 3D display modes, you can automatically rotate it along different axes for one circle, and easily record the whole process in video formats such as avi, mpeg or mp4, and directly insert it into Powerpoint presentations to obtain excellent presentation effects.
Image export - The plan view or stereoscopic structure reconstruction view of the 3D image at any rotation angle can be directly exported to conventional image formats such as TIFF, JPEG, BMP, PNG, etc., and it also supports saving the 3D image directly in the DICOM standard clinical image format; at this time, any analysis software that supports DICOM can be used to reproduce the scanning effect.
Digital X-ray:
FIDEX digital radiography is suitable for all common situations encountered by traditional X-ray imaging. The special feature is that it can provide a full view of the whole animal, or at least most of it. The rotating frame designed by FIDEX increases the freedom of operation and can take anteroposterior and lateral X-ray images without repositioning. Due to the small pixel size of the DR imaging plate and the small focus of FIDEX (0.6mm or 0.3mm), the imaging has an extremely high resolution (100μm)
perspective:
Fluoroscopy allows the study of motion, for example in angiography, or the diffusion of contrast media in cardiology, the movement of bones in the study of the temporomandibular joint or other joints, and the function of the esophagus during food ingestion. FIDEX offers different frame rates, from 5fps for long-term fluoroscopy to 60fps for fast applications, making fluoroscopic studies very convenient with C-arm-like models.
Visualization:
FIDEX uses two display monitors, one mounted on the gantry for real-time display during interventional procedures and the other as part of the console where complex studies can be performed or reviewed later in an offline manner.
