Sellers1, Geoffrey W. Payne2 1Interdisciplinary Science, University of Northern British Columbia, 2Northern Medical Program, University of Northern British Columbia A technique for performing intravital microscopy of the inguinal lymph node (LN) is outlined. Such technique allows for real-time, in vivo study of the lymph node microvasculature and structure both during homeostasis and infection. This technique can be adapted to cell trafficking studies and to other lymph node sites.
