Reconstruction of a piecewise watertight polygonal mesh model of a pyramidal neuron in (b) from its morphological skeleton in (a). In (c), the applicability of the proposed meshing algorithm is demonstrated with multiple neurons having diverse morphological types to validate its generality. The reconstruction results of the 55 exemplar neurons are provided in high resolution with the Additional file 1. The somata, basal dendrites, apical dendrites and axons are colored in yellow, red, green and blue respectively
