Figure 2

Co-registration of overview data from ss-LM (10x objective lens) and NanoCT (effective voxel size ~540 nm). Note that the grey values of the histological section images are inverted for better comparison. (a) 3D renderings of ss-LM data (left, blue/green) and NanoCT (right, grey) displayed adjacent to each other. (b) Plane of interest, which is depicted in (c,d), outlined in the volume rendering. (c) Virtual section of the ss-LM after alignment through the plane marked in (b). (d) Corresponding NanoCT slice through the same plane shown in (b). Legend: I: co-registration mismatch, II: alignment artefact, lm: longitudinal muscle, nr: nerve ring, pv: polian vesicle, rn: radial nerve. Scalebars: 100 µm.
