Figure 5
Transplant evaluation examination using the device was performed on the mouse brain.
(a,b) The device was applied to the cortex after craniotomy. (b) shows the schematic image of (a) and the yellow rectangle in (b) indicates the position of the sensor. (c,d) A gel sheet of three-dimensionally cultured cells was inserted under the dura and plastered to the cortex (c). The cell clump implanted into the cortex (white arrow) (d). Images taken using a fluorescence stereo microscope. The white rectangles indicate the sensor position. (e,f) Changes in fluorescence intensity in (c,d) are indicated as pseudo-colored images. The white asterisks in (c–f) indicate the same position.
