Figure 5
Comparative analysis of the ACI and PCI slice images using the histological method. (a) Immunofluorescence staining of spinal cord microvessels (n = 8). (c) PCI image of the spinal cord microvessels (n = 8). (e) ACI image of the spinal cord microvessels (n = 8). Panels (b), (d) and (f) show magnified images of the rectangles in (a), (c) and (e). (g) Correlation of vessel measurement between P and F (R2 = 0.9559). (h) Correlation of vessel measurements between A and F (R2 = 0.9236). (i) Correlation of vessel measurement between P and A, R2 = 0.9208. (j) Mean diameter measurements obtained with F, A and P (P > 0.05). Abbreviations: F = immunofluorescence imaging; A = ACI; P = PCI. Scale bar = 50 µm. |
