Preface During the last decade, advanced intravital imaging technology by using multiphoton excitation fluorescent microscopy has revolutionized the field of biological sciences. Based on these techniques, we are now able to visualize in situ behavior of a diversity of living cells “intravitally” within intact tissues and organs. This research trend would be quite meritorious especially for analyzing bone and immune systems, where various kinds of cell types are moving around and their spatiotemporal control is pivotal for proper functions in vivo. For example, bone is a mysterious organ where various kinds of hematopoietic and immune cells are produced and functioning altho
