Abstract
Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis, and treatment strategies conducted from preclinical research have not succeeded in extending a patient's survival appreciably. This protocol describes how to prepare an abdominal window in mice. This allows both direct intravital microscopy and chronic observation during pancreas tumor growth and the response to treatment.
