Fiber-based confocal laser scanning microscopy affords a vast field of application in medical research and clinical practice. The application of fluorescent dye allows real-time imaging of yeasts of the genus Malassezia on human skin __in vivo__. An Ar^+^-laser is used to excite the fluorescent food

## Abstract Objective: Until now, high resolution reflectance confocalβlaserβscanning microscopy (CLSM) was used for observation of cutaneous morphology in vivo and in real time. We hypothesized that CLSM also allows observation of dynamic processes of cutaneous microcirculation. Methods: Reflectan
Solid microneedles enhance the penetration of drugs into the viable skin but little is known about the geometry of the conduits in vivo. Therefore, laser scanning microscopy was used to visualize the conduits of a microneedle system with needles at a length of 300 ΞΌm in 6 healthy subjects over a per
## Abstract ## Background: In vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a novel, exciting imaging technique. It provides images of cellβand tissue structures and dynamics in situ, in real time, without the need for ex vivo tissue samples. RCM visualizes the superficial part of human skin up to
