Three-dimensional imaging of the developing vasculature within stem cell-seeded scaffolds cultured in ovo
Successful tissue engineering requires functional vascularization of the three-dimensional constructs with the aim to serve as implants for tissue replacement and regeneration. The survival of the implant is only possible if the supply of oxygen and nutrients by developing capillaries from the host...
