NIR-II Fluorescence imaging: Why, When and How

Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) Imaging, also known as NIR-II imaging, operates in the 900–2000 nm wavelength range and represents a significant advancement for in vivo preclinical applications. This imaging method offers numerous advantages over traditional VIS/NIR imaging, thanks to its unique optical properties, which allow for deeper tissue penetration, reduced autofluorescence, enhanced image clarity, and an improved signal-to-noise ratio. NIR-II imaging provides highly detailed insights into vascular blood flow, drug dispersion in metabolic studies, tumor targeting, tumor angiogenesis, brain tumors, and even single-cell imaging. In this webinar, we discovered Vilber Bio Imaging’s latest NIR-II imaging technology for small animals—the NEWTON FT-900. This powerful, versatile imager combines dual-camera SWIR imaging capabilities with traditional Bioluminescence and VIS/NIR Fluorescence imaging, delivering a comprehensive imaging solution in one device.
