Complex 3D Imaging
February 2024
Until recently, life science research relied on 2D in vitro imaging of a single layer of cells on a flat surface. However, these systems have profound limitations that are recognized throughout the scientific community, especially for translational research. Increasingly, more physiologically-relevant models such as spheroids, organoids, and organ-on-a-chip systems are being used. Even monolayer cells can be imaged in 3D to study internal spatial changes of these cells over time.
