In animals, intravital diagnosis is based predominantly on faeces examinations and immunological methods.

It differs from intravital staining, which is done by injecting or otherwise introducing the stain into the body.

Intravital microscopy is a technique used to observe biological systems in vivo at high resolution through an attached window preparation.

Influence of selenium therapy on liver microcirculation after warm ischemia/reperfusion: an intravital microscopy study.

The initial measurement was taken with intravital microscopy, which showed a slow-moving plasma layer, the glycocalyx, of 1 micrometer thick.

With Paul Langerhans (1847-1888), he investigated the "intravital storage" of cinnabar injected intravenously into laboratory animals.

However, studies have shown the existence necroptice thymic tissue masses in the neck (asymptomatic intravital) more frequently, the incidence reaching nearly 30%.

Additionally, during intravasation, invadopodia-like protrusions in tumor cells have been observed in vivo by intravital imaging.

Differential Vascular Labeling is a labeling method that allows differentiation between blood and lymphatic systems for intravital imaging.

But sometimes it has been used in the literature loosely, to mean supravital staining or intravital (i.e. in vivo) staining instead of its strict meaning.

Intravital imaging was performed in the footpad path of LysM-eGFP mice 20 minutes after infection with LM.

He is remembered for his histopathological work with disseminated sclerosis, the use of an histological silver stain for impregnation of nerve fibers, and with Stanley Cobb, the development of intravital silver staining.

The term vital stain is used by some authors to refer to an intravital stain, and by others interchangeably with a supravital stain, the core concept being that the cell being examined is still alive.

Trapping of bacteria under flow has been imaged directly in flow chambers in vitro and intravital microscopy demonstrated that bacterial trapping occurs in the liver sinusoids and lung capillaries (sites where platelets bind neutrophils).

Since supravital and intravital nature of the staining depends on the dye, a combination of supravital and vital dyes can also be used in a sophisticated way to better classify cells into distinct subsets (e.g. viable, dead, dying etc.).

Intravital solo exhibitions of the artist were organized in 1906 and 1908 (Kharkiv Art and Industry Museum), there also was an exhibition of paintings by Serhii Vasylkivsky and Mykhaylo Berkos in 1911 in Kiev.
