MRM scanned rat brain with unilateral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine. A
rat receives a unilateral injection with 6-hydroxydopamine in the substantia
nigra of one hemisphere. The intact brain is scanned using MRM. The site
of injection is visualized (top, left), and the needle tract can be identified
in relation to the intact brain (top, right). Coronal (bottom, left) and
saggital (bottom, right) "virtual" sections are computer generated demonstrating
the path of the needle tract and the significant structural damage caused
by this treatment. |
