Figure 2

Ex vivo HGM images of Case E100-I90-1, with 100% glycerol immersion. (a) En face HGM images of (1) Top layer of the SC. (2) Bottom layer of the SC. (3) Middle layer of the viable epidermis. (4) Basal layer. (5) Middle layer of the papillary dermis. (6) Top layer of the reticular dermis. Scale bar = 100 μm. (b) Transverse HGM images. The significant depth difference of the reticular dermis layer is attributed to the sample shrinkage post glycerol immersion. Arrow 1: Epidermis; Arrow 2: Dermis.
