The images show reconstructed aspects of the outflow tract of a developing mouse at E11.5. The reconstructions were segmented so that all myocardium, determined using a myocardial-specific marker, was shown in silver, and non-myocardial tissues, lacking the marker, were shown in green (Details provided in Reference [7]). The septal outflow cushion was shown in brown, and the parietal cushion in yellow. Panel (A) shows a superior view of the distal margins of the muscular outflow tract having digitally removed the non-myocardial distal outflow tract. The distal myocardial border has an obvious fishmouth appearance, with the distal margins of the major outflow cushions confluent with the muscular margins. Panel (B) shows the non-myocardial walls of the distal outflow tract viewed from the front. The two non-myocardial tongues fill the spaces formed by the angles of the jaws of the muscular fishmouth. They will become the parietal walls of the aorta and the pulmonary trunk.
