Kemoterapi kaynaklı Vasküler Toksisite - Gerçek zamanlı In vivo Gemi Düşüklüğü Görüntüleme

Overview

This article describes the method of fibered confocal fluorescent microscopy (FCFM) for imaging physiological phenomena at cellular and sub-cellular levels in animal subjects. The technique allows for real-time visualization of vasculature and its responses to various stimuli.

Key Study Components

Area of Science

• Neuroscience

Purpose of Study

• To visualize the vasculature and its response to stimuli in real-time.
• To evaluate potential vascular toxicity of agents like chemotherapeutics.
• To demonstrate the FCFM technique for researchers new to the method.

Methods Used

• Calibration of the fibered confocal microscope.
• Intravenous injection of fitzy dextrin into the animal.
• Real-time imaging of blood vessels during and after treatment.
• Demonstration of the procedure by a trained postdoc.

Main Results
