Positron emission tomograph for laboratory animals
A strong visual signature for cutting-edge technology
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a molecular imaging process used in medicine and scientific research. We created a strong visual signature for this laboratory-grade tomograph.
The optimized architecture is built around the internal components of this state-of-the-art technology. The removable fiberglass housing allows for easy access to the densely spaced internal equipment.
We took particular care to make sure that the motorization of the miniature bed, which is ensured by a linear actuator, guarantees the gentle movement of small animals under anesthesia.
