Established in the 1990s, the Express Radiology Research Laboratory performs advanced radiology training and critical large animal research. The lab enables Johns Hopkins researchers to evolve benchside research into clinical trials for industry practice and improved patient health care. This stage of research includes feasibility studies, iterative testing and advanced training, all of which can provide a basis for subsequent design of clinical trials that will improve individualized patient health care. The lab has a large animal minimally-invasive suite, a Philips Allura C-Arm, is fully staffed and has the equipment needed to perform large animal preclinical studies. The lab is growing and will be adding additional equipment and expertise in time. All animal studies are approved by the Johns Hopkins Animal Care and Use Committee, ensuring compliance with medical ethics.
