Short description
Micro CT segmentation of adult male Danionella cerebrum
Full description
Paper: "The mechanism for directional hearing in fish" (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07507-9). The raw data and full resolution meshgrid data is available at https://gin.g-node.org/danionella/Veith_et_al_2024/src/master/microCT Method: A 12-month-old male wild-type Danionella c. was euthanized by ice shock and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) at 4 °C overnight. The next day, the fish was washed for 15 minutes in PBS before being stained with 5% phosphomolybdic acid (Sigma Aldrich) solution in PBS at 4 °C overnight. After staining, the fish was washed in PBS for 15 minutes before embedding in 1% PBS buffered agarose inside a cryo tube. The micro-CT scan was performed at the ANATOMIX beamline at SOLEIL synchrotron by XPLORAYTION GmbH. The sample was placed into a 40 keV polychromatic (white) X-ray beam. A scan consisted of 3200 projections collected at ~10x optical magnification by a digital camera (Orca Flash 4.0 V2) with a sensor pixel size of 6.5 µm at 150 ms exposure time, yielding an effective pixel size of 0.6485 µm. The registered data were binned to 1.2970 µm voxel size. Key structures of the hearing apparatus were manually segmented. To this end, planes were hand-labeled using 3D Slicer (v5.6, slicer.org) and then interpolated using Biomedisa (v23). FIJI ImageJ (v1.5) was used to convert between different file types. The segments were turned into mesh grids and loaded into Blender for cleaning and rendering.
