Nissl
and Myelin slice data: frontal These 8-bit raw cropped sections extracted
from the Sidman mouse Atlas show the degree of anatomical voxel detail underlying
this simulation. The thalamus, thalamic radiations, and portions of the
target cortex are prominent. The dark cluster of cells in the lower middle
of the upper Nissl-stained panel is the thalamus, and includes the ventrobasal
complex (VB) on its right. The region with dark lines through it (in Myelin
stain, lower panel) is the thalamic radiation. Cerebral cortex is along
the top (truncated) and at the far right. The Hippocampus in the upper panel
has its classical appearance showing the v-shaped dentate gyrus, and in
the lower panel lies under a dark myelinated band (the white matter) running
along the under surface of the cortex. |
