Optimizing Imaging of Three-Dimensional Multicellular Tumor Spheroids with Fluorescent Reporter Proteins Using Confocal Microscopy

Tumor spheroids more faithfully mimic tumor biology than monolayer cultures and require three-dimensional microscopy. Our goal in this study was to overcome the limitations of signal to noise ratio that have traditionally limited three-dimensional imaging to depths of 100 μm or less. We studied the...
