Three-dimensional cellular assays are becoming increasingly popular as a fundamental tool to bridge the gap between tissue culture systems and in vivo tissue. In particular, spheroids are recognised today as a necessary intermediate model between testing in monolayer cultures and testing in animals. This chapter describes a straightforward protocol, from sample preparation to image acquisition and initial post-processing, based on one of most widely used commercial light-sheet fluorescence microscopy platform, the Zeiss Lightsheet Z.1.
