Summary Statement

In this study, we employed a novel imaging modalities, the synchrotron radiation microcomputed tomography (SRμCT) to visualise the 3D morphology of the spinal cord microvasculature and successfully obtained the 3D images.

Introduction

Understanding the morphology of the spinal cord microvasculature in three-dimensions (3D) is limited by the lack of an effective high-resolution imaging technique. In this study, we used two novel imaging modalities, conventional x-ray microcomputed tomography (CμCT) and synchrotron radiation microcomputed tomography (SRμCT), to visualise the 3D morphology of the spinal cord microvasculature and to compare their utility in basic science research.
