Imaging techniques are indispensable methods for recent biological science. Japanese Society of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry is a society focusing on the advance of morphological tchniques and its appplication to life science. In this symposium, three morphology specialists introduce three important imaging techniques that is useful for pharmacological research.
1) Basic technique for immunocytochemistry and the pitfalls
2) Key techniques for multilabeling immunostaing using cultured cells
3) Imaging of physiological functions using fluorescent dye in living tissues
