Tumor Cell Diapedesis Extravasation. In vivo imaging of an injected fluorescently-labelled HeLa cervical cancer cell undergoing extravasation through diapedesis. The HeLa cell (cyan) squeezes through the blood vessel (red) wall with minimal vascular restructuring. The HeLa cell transmigrates form the lumen of the blood vessel into surrounding tissue. 3D rendered version on right. SB = 20 μm
