Imavita | About us
Expert in preclinical models and preclinical imaging for the study of drugs and therapeutics efficacy in preclinical R&D
A Contract Research Organization specialised in Preclinical Models and Imaging
Since 2013, Imavita has been a specialized preclinical CRO dedicated to supporting the development of innovative therapies. We provide tailored preclinical services to the pharmaceutical industry and research laboratories, offering preclinical models and imaging modalities to evaluate the efficacy of new compounds. Our approach combines expertise, passion and ethics with a client-focused methodology.
We are committed to delivering reliable and reproducible preclinical data, using non-invasive preclinical imaging technologies, while minimizing the impact on animals through the 3R principles (Replacement, Reduction, Refinement).
Our goal: to provide more effective care through innovative and responsible R&D.
