Hong Kong scientists develop high-speed imaging for live brain cell activity in awake mice

Scientists developed a new imaging technology to capture high-resolution brain activity in awake mice, offering near noninvasive observation. This breakthrough allows study of the brain in its natural, functional state, free from anesthesia's confounding effects, promising deeper insights into neurological conditions. The technology, MD-FSS, significantly speeds up image acquisition, enabling detailed real-time observation of neuronal, glial, and vascular dynamics.
