The Small Animal Imaging Shared Resource is new within the VICC. It is dedicated to providing scientific and technical support for non-invasive imaging of small animals in vivo. The equipment and personnel necessary for this Shared Resource are provided by the Center for Small Animal Imaging, which was created at Vanderbilt University Medical Center as part of the newly-formed Vanderbilt Institute of Imaging Science. The use of in vivo imaging is a valuable and essential tool in diverse studies of tumor biology, especially in rat and mouse models, and a variety of anatomic, physiologic, pathologic and metabolic information can be obtained non-invasively from intact animals in series studies. Dr. John C. Gore is the Resource Director and facilitates investigators' research with the help of an expert staff dedicated to developing new and improved imaging methods and their applications; laboratory spaces for animal preparation and monitoring; computing Shared Resources for image analysis and processing; and an electronics workshop for development of instrumentation and other technical support. Dr. Gore has directed imaging research facilities for many years, and maintains an active research program developing and applying imaging methods in cancer and other areas. The faculty and staff of the Shared Resource are expert in different aspects of imaging science and stand ready to assist VICC investigators.

小动物成像共享资源是VICC中的新资源。它致力于为体内小动物的非侵入性成像提供科学和技术支持。该共享资源所需的设备和人员由小型动物成像中心提供，该中心是在范德比尔特大学医学中心创建的，作为新成立的范德比尔特成像科学研究所的一部分。体内成像的使用是在肿瘤生物学的多种研究中，尤其是在大鼠和小鼠模型中的多种研究中，可以从完整的动物中从完整的动物中获得多种解剖学，生理，病理学和代谢信息。约翰·戈尔（John C.用于动物制备和监测的实验室空间；计算共享资源用于图像分析和处理；以及用于开发仪器和其他技术支持的电子研讨会。戈尔博士有 多年来指导成像研究设施，并维持一项积极的研究计划，在癌症和其他领域开发和应用成像方法。共享资源的教职员工是成像科学不同方面的专家，并准备帮助VICC调查人员。
