Three-dimensional fluorescence images of neurons in the brain of a live mouse, before and after clearing

Caption

Three-dimensional fluorescence imaging of neurons in Layer 5 of the cerebral cortex, captured by two-photon microscopy in mice expressing a fluorescent protein (Thy1-EYFP-H). SeeDB-Live clearing improved fluorescence brightness in deep brain regions compared to uncleared tissue.
