Imaging is a powerful tool for biomedical research offering non-contact and minimally or non-invasive means of investigating at multiple scales - from single molecules to large populations of cells. Imaging in awake, behaving animals is an emerging field that offers the additional advantage of being able to study physiological processes and structures in a more natural state than what is possible in tissue slices or even in anesthetized animals. It can provide important information on physiological as well as diseased states of living organisms.

成像是生物医学研究的强大工具，提供了从单分子到大量细胞的多个尺度的非接触和最小或非侵入性的研究手段。在清醒的行为动物中进行成像是一个新兴的领域，它提供了一个额外的优势，即能够在比组织切片甚至在麻醉动物中更自然的状态下研究生理过程和结构。它可以提供有关生物的生理和疾病状态的重要信息。
