Intravital fluorescence microscopy of tumor growth and local microvessels in the femur window (a, c, e) with a 2.5× objective and in the dorsal skinfold chamber (b, d, f) with a 1.25× objective after contrast enhancement with 0.1 ml of 5% FITC-labeled dextran 150,000 on days 7, 14, and 21. Note the different tumor growth rates of LnCap (a, b), Du145 (c, d), and Pc3 (e, f) cells (scale bars a, c, e = 500 μm; b, d, f = 680 μm)
