Duke Standard Operating Procedure for MR Imaging at 7T of tumor-bearing mice using a surface coil

Generalized Scanning Protocol (U24) – SOP

This SOP is designed as a general guide for in vivo MR imaging of small animals as part of a pre-clinical cancer study, using a volume transmit coil + surface receive coil at high fields. Note that this protocol begins with information that is not machine or project specific.
