摘要
For many years, the dorsal skinfold chamber has been used for intravital observation in animal models. We have developed a chamber built using medical-grade titanium. Our design allows long-term, high resolution, and large-area observation in nude mice in vivo. Combined with two-photon fluorescence and second-harmonic generation microscopy, our chamber can be used to obtain qualitative and quantitative information for in vivo analysis of diseases such as tumors.
