What is the story about?
What's Happening?
Researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China have developed ViSOR, a method for imaging the mouse peripheral nervous system at micrometer resolutions. ViSOR uses a custom tissue clearing step and sequential cutting and imaging approach to produce detailed 3D images. This method offers new insights into the peripheral nervous system.
Why It's Important?
ViSOR provides a powerful tool for studying the peripheral nervous system, potentially advancing research in areas such as neurodegenerative diseases and nerve regeneration. By offering high-resolution imaging capabilities, this method could lead to better understanding of nervous system functions and disorders, facilitating the development of new treatments.
