In vivo histology has several applications in research, including:
Cancer Research: In vivo imaging allows researchers to study tumor growth, metastasis, and the effects of treatments in real-time. Neuroscience: Techniques like multiphoton microscopy enable the observation of neuronal activity and connectivity in living brains. Developmental Biology: Researchers can study embryonic development and organogenesis by observing living embryos over time. Cardiovascular Research: In vivo imaging helps in understanding heart function, blood flow, and the impact of various cardiovascular diseases. Immunology: In vivo techniques allow for the study of immune cell behavior and interactions within living tissues.
