a The preparation of mouse brain for imaging with the scalp incised and two burr holes (about 1 mm in diameter) on skull. b Schematic of microendoscope imaging in mouse deep brain. c Reconstructed volumetric mouse brain image of 5-mm depth. d En face projection view of the unfolded cylindrical OCT volume shown in (c). e Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) histology micrograph of brain sample correlated to (c, d). Representative cross-sectional images of different mouse brain structures, including cerebral cortex (f), corpus callosum (g), caudate putamen (h), and ventral striatum (i), corresponding to dashed lines in (c). Scale bars are 500 μm.
