In order to study changes in synaptic structure that accompany learning and memory, we have developed optical methods to visualize dendritic spines and presynaptic terminals in living, electrically monitored brain slices maintained in vitro.

The characteristic of confocal microscopy (CM) vascular data is that it contains many tiny vessels with branching and complex structure. In this work, an automated method for quantitative analysis and reconstruction of cerebral vessels from CM images is presented in which the extracted centerline of
Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used to visualize presynaptic elements of mossy-fiber synapses in living rat hippocampal slices. Mossy fiber (mf) axons and their boutons were labeled in transverse hippocampal slices by injecting one of three fluorescent dyes (diI, diA, or fast diI) int
## Abstract Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) confined in liposomes of diameters around 200 nm produce strong scattering signal owing to surface plasmon resonance, and therefore brightβfield optical tracking of the AuNPβencapsulating liposomes can be conducted in living cells. Using an optical profiling t
