Image of the Week: Repairing Skull Bone

Section of mouse calvarial bone days after injury imaged through second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy, revealing changes in collagen organization and tissue remodeling. The SHG signal of fibrillar collagen is displayed in green, while blue shows the autofluorescence of primarily organic, non-collagen components in bone tissue.
