Cranial imaging window implantation technique for longitudinal multimodal imaging of the brain environment in live mice

Summary: Intravital two-photon microscopy of the mouse brain requires visual access without affecting normal cognitive functions, which is crucial for longitudinal imaging studies that may last several months. In this protocol, we describe the surgical implantation of a metal-free cranial imaging wi...
