Novel method of image analysis reveals how cancer cells manipulate their size to resist treatment. Cancer cells can shrink or super-size themselves to survive drug treatment or other challenges within their environment, researchers have discovered. Scientists at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, combined biochemical profiling technologies with mathematical analyses to reveal how genetic changes lead to differences in the size of cancer cells – and how these changes could be exploited by new treatments...
For high-resolution imaging, immersion media between the sample and objective is required. This can be a challenge for some experiments using water as immersion media. One application of immersion media might not be sufficient as the sample moves to different locations and water evaporates over long periods of time. Manual addition risks loss of data points, microscope damage, and is tedious and inefficient...
