Confocal light microscopy image of hippocampal dendrite covered with dendritic spines. (A) Maximum intensity projection (MIP) of the z-stack with an outlined region-of-interest (ROI). (B) Cropped and enlarged MIP image of the selected ROI. (C) 3-D rendering of the selected ROI from the confocal z-stack with enhanced morphological details of individual spines. (D) 3-D segmentation result of the selected ROI with the extracted spines marked in red.
