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

Fibrin forms part of the stroma essential for growth of solid tumors. Anticoagulants reduce primary tumor growth and tumor metastasis in murine and some human tumors. These effects may be partly mediated by reduction of intra-tumor fibrin, although there are no quantitative data to support this hypo
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 ฮผm in 6 healthy subjects over a per

Much research in medicine is focused on the development of antitumoral therapies. The encapsulation of the active single chemotherapy agent doxorubicin in highly stable Stealth^ยฎ^ liposomes can cause dominant and dose-limiting mucocutaneous reactions, such as the hand-foot syndrome. The aim of the p
Normal skin barrier function is an essential aspect of skin homeostasis and regeneration. Dynamic inflammatory, proliferative and neoplastic skin processes such as wound healing, psoriasis and contact dermatitis are associated with a significant disruption of the skin barrier. In recent years, there
