Morphological changes of mouse cortical neurons after heavy ion beam or X-ray irradiation (inverted phase contrast microscope, × 200).

(A) Control group: The morphology of cells is normal. (B) Heavy ion irradiation group: The number of cells is decreased, the soma is smaller and the cytoplasmic refraction is lower. Most of the cells are distributed in an uneven manner. (C) X-ray group: The number of cells is reduced. There is more cell debris and the cells are sparsely distributed.
