Key:
a - 3D movie showing anatomy only
b - Original projection images in GFP1 (anatomy) channel
c - Monochrome virtual section from GFP1 channel in frontal orientation
d - Monochrome virtual section from GFP1 channel in sagittal orientation
e - Monochrome virtual section from GFP1 channel in transverse orientation

In addition to producing 3D movies showing signal, we also produce 3D movies demonstrating anatomy only. One of these rotates (see fig 8b here) to show overall morphology fig 9a. We also provide a similar movie which cuts away while rotating to show internal histology / tissue architecture .(see fig 8a here)

A useful way of viewing the internal anatomy is to scroll through the monochrome virtual section movies for GFP1 (this may be TXR in some cases). These are provided in three orientations; frontal (y-z) -fig 9c, sagittal (x-z) - fig 9d, and transverse (x-y) - fig 9e, and again formatted as mpg movies. We also provide png image files for the sagittal plane in each channel. These png image files can be imported into other 3D visualisation packages.

The original projection image from GFP1 is also included here (fig 9b) for reference.

The transverse virtual sections illustrate the value of the GFP1 channel for showing anatomy in greater detail. This makes them ideal for analysing anatomy in large numbers of specimens in a short time.

A similar series (fig 9b-e) is provided for each channel, e.g. GFP2, TXR, visible light.
