Adaptation to the mouse of the transparent-chamber technique (1) has been followed by its application to a variety of problems concerned with the growth, vascular development, and circulatory physiology of normal and neoplastic tissues (, l-5). This in vivo microscopic approach to problems of tumor induction and growth is directed toward a dynamic, functional study of changes in living tissues. In these studies morphologic observation of the living tissues has been supplemented by measurements of changes in the percentage of functional blood vessels, using the method described by Chalkley (6). Methods have been developed (7) for measurements of peripheral blood pressure in arteries, veins, and capillaries of normal and neoplastic tissues, and for recording frequency and duration of arteriolar vasomotor activity.Numerous improvements in the technique have been made in the course of its application. The improvements are concerned with increasing the useful duration of the chambers, modified construction details, shortened operative procedures, increased resolution of cellular detail through improvements in microscopy and through devising chambers in which thin layers of living tissue are made accessible to observation, and improved designs of photographic equipment and procedures for still and motion photomicrography. The present article is concerned with a detailed description of the procedure as now used, based on continued use over a period of 7 years.
