Abstract

Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is one of the most prevalent fluorescence microscopy techniques for assessing the progression of cancer cells in three-dimensional structures, such as vasculogenic mimicry (VM). We show a basic approach for using DAPI and phalloidin dyes to detect the early stages of progression and VM of melanoma tumor cells grown in a 3D environment, as well as demonstrating how to acquire images and improve them by changing the software acquisition parameters.
