Published: March 2003

Bone cells form a wired network within the extracellular bone matrix. To analyse this complex 3D structure, we employed a confocal fluorescence imaging procedure to visualize live bone cells within their native surrounding. By means of newly developed image processing software, the "Image-Equalizer", we aimed to enhanced the contrast and eliminize artefacts in such a way that cell bodies as well as fine interconnecting processes were visible.
