摘要

Abstract

Modern optical imaging techniques provide powerful tools for observing cortical structure and functions at high resolutions. Various skull windows have been established for different applications of cortical imaging

and each has its advantages and limitations. Most critical of the limitations

none of the current skull windows is suitable for observing the responses to some acute craniocerebral injuries on a large scale and at high resolution. Here

we developed a "Through-Intact-Skull (TIS) window" that enables the observation of an immune response on a bilateral cortical scale and at single-cell resolution after traumatic brain injury without affecting the pathological environment of the brain. The TIS window also has the advantages of craniotomy-freeness

centimeter-field of view

synaptic resolution

large imaging depth

long-term observation capability

and suitability for awake mice. Therefore

the TIS window is a promising new approach for intravital cortical microscopy in basic research in neuroscience.
