Summed Z projection through a through-focus series of a medium spiny neuron from the neostriatum of a dopamine-transporter knock out mouse, filled with Lucifer Yellow and then photooxidized. The neuron is not completely contained within the section so part of it is missing.

Animation description
Animation stepping through the slices of the through-focus series of a medium spiny neuron from the neostriatum of a dopamine-transporter knock out mouse, filled with Lucifer Yellow and then photooxidized. The neuron is not completely contained within the section so part of it is missing. This movie was downsampled from the original file for display purposes.
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 (*_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.
