Description

The Molecubes X-CUBE is a modular and flexible molecular scanner developed by Molecubes, designed to obtain detailed images of molecules and biological samples. It utilizes innovative technologies such as SPECT/CT scanning (Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography and Computed Tomography), allowing it to visualize molecular structures in 3D. This makes the device particularly suitable for research in biomedical and pharmaceutical sciences.

The X-CUBE offers researchers the ability to combine different scans into one platform, enabling them to obtain both molecular and anatomical information. This aids in gaining in-depth insights into the behavior of molecules in biological systems, such as in the context of diseases, drug testing, or studying cellular processes.

The modular nature of the system ensures that researchers can customize and expand it according to their specific needs, such as by adding additional modules or detectors. This makes the X-CUBE a versatile tool for molecular research.

In summary, the Molecubes X-CUBE is an advanced, modular system that provides detailed molecular imaging for applications in biomedical and pharmaceutical research.
