Mouse Brain E17 Magnetic Resonance Microscopy
Magnetic resonance microscopy (MRM) enables concurrent visualization of the brain and face of E17 mouse foetuses.
- A - Forebrain regions, pituitary, and cerebellum were manually segmented from transverse 39 µm MRM sections.
- B - 3D brain reconstructions were generated by overlaying manually segmented regions with whole-brain masks.
- C,D - Reduced opacity of the left cortex and diencephalon allows visualization of the left ventricle, hippocampus, third ventricle, and pituitary. From the same MRM scans, 3D head reconstructions were created, allowing concurrent visualization of the face and brain in situ.
- E - The size of a GD17 mouse fetus can be appreciated when shown in scale with a U.S. penny.
