Preclinical Oncology Imaging and Radiopharmaceutical Services to Accelerate Drug Development
Your one- stop shop, from radiolabeling and preclinical biodistribution studies to IND-enabling dosimetry and efficacy studies, Perceptive Discovery delivers precise, translatable multi-modality imaging data to accelerate your oncology and radiopharmaceutical programs.
Your Partner for Preclinical and Translational Oncology Imaging
Perceptive Discovery delivers advanced preclinical oncology imaging and radiopharmaceutical development services to support therapeutic programs from discovery through early clinical development. Our cross-disciplinary team of radiochemists, imaging scientists, and oncology pharmacologists, work collaboratively to de-risk discovery and early-phase development by visualizing images of anti-tumor efficacy, target engagement, pharmacokinetics, dosimetry and therapeutic biodistribution in clinically relevant tumor models.
With deep expertise in radiopharmaceuticals and radioligand therapy (RLT), we help clients design and validate custom-labeled agents, quantify tumor uptake, and predict human dose and safety profiles—accelerating the path from concept to clinic.

De-risk and Accelerate Your Oncology & RLT Pipeline
Radioligand Therapy & Theranostic Imaging
Support your RLT program with comprehensive imaging and dosimetry services. We design studies using diagnostic/therapeutic isotope pairs (e.g., Zr-89/Lu-177 or Pb-203/Pb-212) to evaluate biodistribution, tumor targeting, and normal tissue dose.
Surrogate isotope imaging to project human dosimetry
Alpha and beta emitter experience (Ac-225, Lu-177, Pb-212, At-211)
Personalized imaging strategies for patient selection and IND submission readiness
Theranostic Agent Development
Design and validate companion imaging agents for patient stratification and dose prediction using isotopes like F-18, Ga-68, Cu-64, and Zr-89.
Cell & Gene Therapy Tracking
Visualize CAR-T, oncolytic virus, and engineered cell biodistribution in real time using bioluminescence and advanced radiolabeling.
Efficacy in In Vivo Tumor Models
Quantify efficacy in disease-relevant models to increase translational confidence and guide candidate selection.
Advanced Image Analysis
Gain fast, actionable insights through automated data processing pipelines—supporting segmentation, dosimetry, PK/PD evaluation, and therapeutic response modeling.
