Glossary In Vivo Imaging

techniques to visualize biological processes in living organisms

In Vivo Imaging, also known as live imaging, refers to the techniques used to visualize and monitor biological processes within a living organism in real-time. This method allows researchers and medical professionals to observe the dynamic interactions and functions of cells, tissues, and organs without the need for invasive procedures, providing valuable insights into disease progression, treatment efficacy, and overall biological function.
