Figure 2

Characterisation of human laryngeal tissue’s architecture using X-ray synchrotron microtomographic PRI imaging mode and medium spatial resolution (Vvox = 133 μm3). (a) left: 3D reconstruction of sample L5; right: tomographic image of a larynx vertical 2D slice, coronal plane (L9, [C2H60] = 100%). ① Vocal fold, ④ Trachea, ⑤ Ventricular fold, ⑦ Thyroid cartilage, ⑧ Cricoid cartilage. (b) Zoom on one vocal fold and its inner fibrous architecture in coronal (orange) and perpendicular transverse (yellow) planes (L9, [C2H60] = 100%). ① EP, ② LP, ③ M.
