Figure 4: 3-D architecture of a neonatal mouse heart.
From: Light-sheet fluorescence imaging to localize cardiac lineage and protein distribution
(a) 3-D rendering of the reconstructed P7 (postnatal day 7) heart (see Movie S1) reveals the small ventricular cavity in a thick wall. (b) The horizontal bar demarcates the left, septal, and right ventricular wall thickness at 1500 μm, 980 μm, and 530 μm, respectively. (c) 2-D valvular structures are visualized from a P1 mouse heart. (d) Pectinate muscle is prominent in the right atrium (see Movie S2). (e) Trabeculation is present in the ventricular endocardium (see Movie S3). The inset shows two translucent hearts after CLARITY in the tube. Scale bar: 1 mm.
