(February 25th, 2025) Real-Time Insights into Cardiothoracic Research with Intravital Microscopy

For years, traditional lab techniques like in vitro and ex vivo studies helped scientists understand cell biology. But there was a major gap – these methods couldn’t fully capture how cells behaved in a living, breathing system.

That’s where Intravital Microscopy (IVM) came in. This powerful imaging technology allowed researchers to see cellular activity in real-time, with incredible clarity and precision.

But imaging the heart and lungs presented a unique challenge. These organs were constantly in motion, making real-time visualization tricky. Thankfully, groundbreaking advances – like vacuum-based stabilization and motion compensation algorithms – made high-resolution imaging of these moving structures a reality.

What Attendees Gained from This Webinar:

• New Scientific Insights: Participants saw how IVM transformed our understanding of immune cell movement in the lungs, cellular changes in heart disease, and more.
• Advanced Imaging Solutions: They discovered the latest stabilization techniques that made it possible to capture clear, detailed images of beating hearts and expanding lungs.
• Real-World Applications: They learned how these innovations drove major breakthroughs in cardiovascular and pulmonary research, with direct implications for disease treatment and drug development.
• Live Expert Discussion:  Attendees connected with experts and got answers to their biggest questions about in vivo imaging. This was a chance to explore how cutting-edge imaging revolutionized cardiothoracic research – shedding light on disease mechanisms, immune responses, and new therapeutic possibilities.
