The SGP-3 Head Holder comes with a holder and a base of 100% plastic and is used in MRI. The animal’s head can be firmly held in place at three-points (mouth, nose and ears). The size of the SGP-3 for rats is kept to just under 70mm when the holder is detached from the base. If an MRI scanner has a small opening, the animal can be held in place to pass through the scanner. This allows measurements even when using small MRI scanners. The SGP-3 Head Holder is for rats and the SGP-4 Head Holder is for mice.

Specification

The anaesthetic mask (GM-3) cannot be attached to this head holder.
