Shigeaki Kanatani

I am a research engineer working in BIC imaging facility. I develop new 3D imaging techniques using tissue clearing and light sheet microscopy.

I have developed the following innovative 3D imaging methods.

• DIPCO method (Diagnosing Immunolabeled Paraffin-Embedded Cleared Organs)
