A four channel SENSE mouse brain microcoil array with integrated physiology support and monitoring for imaging four mice simultaneously is presented. Phantom and in vivo images are have been acquired which illustrates the utility of the system for screening a large cohort of orthotopic and genetically engineered mouse brain tumor models.
