Core for Translational Research in Imaging (CTRIM)

 

Please be sure to acknowledge us in your publications: University of Maryland School of Medicine’s Center for Translational Research in Imaging– Baltimore, Maryland.

Overview of Services

The Core for Translational Research in Imaging @ Maryland (C-TRIM) was established with the goal to advance state-of-the-art technology for animal imaging at the molecular, cellular and systemic level, to serve as resource for medical research, biotechnology advances and pharmaceutical development, and for probing in vivo gene function, disease processes and therapeutic applications including drug delivery and trials. The goal of this core is to facilitate inter-institutional collaboration between academic institutions in Maryland and technology translation to the industry.

 

A major objective of C-TRIM is to provide services for in-vivo and ex-vivo cross-sectional and functional imaging using MRI, MR-g-FUS, PET, and CT. The center will provide consultation on advanced imaging techniques and will also provide all necessary image-processing support to investigators. Capabilities also exist within the center to build custom made coils for specific applications.
