As an emerging biomedical model the development of Magnetic Resonance Imaging techniques for use in the zebrafish would prove particularly useful to many streams of in vivo research. However the exceptionally small size of this species compared to rodent models and it's unique aquatic environment provide several practical challenges to be overcome. We present a custom MRI compatible flow cell equipped with an integrated solenoid coil for successful imaging that meet those challenges.
