Computer-generated "virtual" coronal sections of a rat brain. A 3-dimensional volumetric MRM image dataset of a rat brain hemisphere was acquired. Sections were computer-generated along the coronal plane in order to demonstrate the 3-D nature of the technology and its ability to rapidly do macrohistological analyses of the sample in a nondestructive manner. A photographic image of the intact image is showing demonstrating the sites of "sectioning". Voxel resolution is 47 microns.
