Figure 6
3D images of the intramedullary artery of the spinal cord obtained using PCI (n = 8) and ACI (n = 8). The images in (b) and (d) are magnified views of the gray matter area (yellow star) shown in (a) and (c), respectively. The final 3D vessel diameter distribution of the intramedullary artery extracted from the PCI dataset largely matched the results measured obtained with ACI (P > 0.05). (b), (d) Scale bar = 50 µm. |
