Single transmitted light section from a through focus series through a photoconverted medium spiny cell from the neostriatum of a wild type mouse. Flocculent material surrounding the labeled cell is likely photoconverted mitochondria or non-specific debris produced by the photoconversion procedure.

Animation description
Animation stepping through a through focus series of a photoconverted medium spiny cell from the neostriatum of a wild type mouse. Flocculent material surrounding the labeled cell is likely photoconverted mitochondria or non-specific debris produced by the photoconversion procedure.
Manual tracing of dendrites using Neurolucida. Spines were traced but these were difficult to see, so the number may not be accurate.
Segmentation file description
Zip file containing Neurolucida trace file in ascii format (050803d_finaltrace.ASC), along with the output in VRML format. Summary files of measurements generated by Neuroexplorer for each of the parts traced are also included.
