Morphological parameters analyzed from 3D neuronal reconstructions.
| Program | Parameter/description |
|---|---|
| Neuronstudio | Sholl length (μm) – Total length of all branches per 10 μm Sholl radius |
| Cumulative Sholl length (μm) – Cumulative length of all branches per 10 μm Sholl radius | |
| Sholl branch points – Total number of branch points per 10 μm Sholl radius | |
| Branch length/branch order – Average branch length per branch order | |
| L-Measure | Total number of primary dendrites stemming from the soma |
| Total length of all branches per branch order | |
| Number of branch points per branch order | |
| Number of branches per branch order | |
| Number of tips per branch order | |
| Maximum radial distance (μm) – Euclidean distance between the soma and the farthest compartment reached by a dendrite | |
| Maximum branch order per 10 μm Sholl radius | |
| Contraction per branch order – ratio between the Euclidean distance and branch path distance calculated per branch order | |
| Partition asymmetry – where T1 and T2 are the number of tips of each daughter tree. Computed at every branch point and plotted as function of branch order |
