Time-lapse imaging of disease progression in deep brain areas using fluorescence microendoscopy : Nature Medicine : Nature Publishing Group

nature.com — “Tony Ko and his colleagues introduce a fluorescence microendoscopy imaging approach for time-lapse studies of deep brain tissue previously inaccessible to conventional optical imaging techniques. It can be used to study the cellular effects of brain disease over weeks to months with comparable resolution to light microscopy. They use the approach to monitor individual hippocampal neurons, neuronal dendrites and blood vessels and to follow the process of glioma angiogenesis.View full resource at nature.com
