Stage top platform for stable and long term intravital imaging of mouse mammary tumor models

Create a stage top platform that allows a flexible PDMS imaging lens to remain stable during intravital imaging of the mammary gland of a mouse.

Project Overview

The client asked our team to design a stage top platform for their lab while doing intravital imaging of a mammary gland in a mouse. This stage top platform must allow a flexible lens to remain stable for long periods of time while imaging is done under a microscope. The benefits of using a flexible lens is that the lens will be able to remain in the mouse for much longer time, and our client would be able to see the development of the microenvironment surrounding the tumor over longer periods of time.
