Advanced imaging techniques are crucial for tracking stem cells, including hematopoietic stem cells and pluripotent stem cells, in complex biological systems. These methods enhance our understanding of stem cell behavior and development.

Area of Science:

  • Stem cell biology
  • Developmental biology
  • Biomedical imaging

Background:

  • Significant advancements have been made in understanding multipotent (e.g., hematopoietic stem cells) and pluripotent (e.g., embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells) stem cells.
  • Studying stem cell behavior in complex environments has been challenging due to limitations in observing distribution, migration, engraftment, survival, proliferation, and differentiation.
  • Current methods often rely on limited snapshot images or molecular markers, hindering a comprehensive understanding of stem cell fate.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the critical need for reliable imaging methods to monitor and track stem cell fate.
  • To review the application of current imaging modalities in stem cell research.
  • To discuss the future challenges and opportunities in stem cell imaging.
