Two-photon in vivo imaging of cells

Abstract: In vivo imaging of cells gives a glimpse into the world of biology in a natural setting unparalleled by any other venue. Two-photon imaging of fluorescently labeled cells has become the standard to obtain high-resolution, dynamic images of living specimens with great specificity. This review focuses on providing the reader with a short history of, and impetus behind, two-photon imaging, its working mechanics, and emerging technologies related to biological multiphoton imaging.

“…Instead multiphoton microscopy using light with higher wavelengths and allowing a better focus of the illuminating beam is ideal for in vivo imaging (Christensen and Nedergaard, 2011). We next set-up the optimal imaging conditions with a multiphoton microscope LSM 7 MP OPO (Zeiss, France).…”

“…A variety of modalities have been explored for transmitting energy and information through biological media, including: magnetic fields (MRI4 and near-field powered devices5), microwave6, ultrasound78, Infrared9 and photonic10. The exacting requirements of magnetic field strength and uniformity for micro-MRI are well documented, and in general limit the method to the examination of small biological volumes that can be contained within the controlled field environment.…”

“…There is some debate as to which high-resolution imaging method, two-photon or confocal, is the superior choice for fluorescent imaging of cells [1]. Because of the lower wavelengths (400-700 nm) used in confocal imaging, there is a tendency for the tissue to absorb heat and thus it is only suitable for fixed tissue, which can introduce distortions.…”
