Fig. 5a

Intravital microscopy image of TRITC-dextran filled lymphatics (white) superimposed on transillumination image of blood vessels (black). The image shows an A-07-GFP melanoma xenograft (delineated by red line) and the surrounding normal tissue. Images of lymphatics were recorded 10–15 min after 3–5 intradermal injections of ~2 μl TRITC-dextran in the skin surrounding the window chambers. b Lymphatic diameter versus time for window chambers with and without A-07-GFP tumors. Points, means of 8–13 window chambers; bars, standard error. c Change in lymphatic diameter versus tumor size. Points, individual window chambers; line, curve fitted to the data by linear regression.
