Biomed´s – Animal Imaging
Non-invasive with SMAiCOM®
Safety data from preclinical models are indispensable in drug development. At the same time animal welfare must be considered. Biomed therefore developed the automated SMall Animal imaging COMputer. In a completely non-invasive manner SMAiCOM® records body temperature changes and at the same time physical 3D-activity. SMAiCOM® contributes to the 3R´s – Refinement of animal studies.
SMAiCOM® is produced in collaboration with EPnP medical, Austria.
