Has there been any success with getting the imaging working in rats?  What virus do you use?  Any changes to the protocol?
Thank you

Hi Honi,

I am also working in rats and I have had some issues. Have you been able to get it working? If so, did you make any changes to the protocol?
Also if you don't mind me asking, are you using the objective-relay 2 lens configuration? The area I am trying to image is at a depth of 5.5mm so I am wondering if anyone has had success doing deep brain imaging in rats. Thanks!

I didn't end up getting it working.  I might have if I was a better surgeon...
