Figure 4. High resolution reconstruction of spines from HL2/3 dendrites.

Figure 4.

Top. Three examples of confocal images of basal dendritic branches from post mortem tissue. Bottom. The 3D images were segregated to spines (red) and shafts (white) that were later reconstructed in 3D. The dendritic shaft area and total spines area were calculated from the reconstructions and resulted in a F value for each branch (Equation 2). Scale bar is 5 µm.
