The chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) is a rich vascularized extraembryonic membrane that is commonly used as an in vivo experimental model to study molecules with angiogenic and anti-angiogenic activity, tumor growth and metastasis. Among other applications of the CAM assay, more recently this assay has been used for the study of acellular scaffolds and of organoids, and of their angiogenic capacity. The aim of this review article is to summarize the literature data concerning these two new applications of the CAM assay and to underline the advantages of this assay.
