Images

These are sagittal and axial slices through a microMRI image
of a 15.5 dpc embryo which is heterozygous for the gene Chd7. This
gene is implicated in the human condition CHARGE syndrome. MRI is an
effective method of screening embryos and in this case a heart defect
was detected. This ventricular septal defect is clearly seen in the
volume render (top-right) where the two ventricles (LV and RV) can be
seen to communicate.

This image shows the 3D volume rendering of MRI images from an mouse embryo heart with a ventricular septum defect (VSD). RA = right atrium, LA = left atrium, RV = right ventricle, LV = left ventricle

Iron particles (red) are visualised in 3D inside an SPIO-labelled
human mononuclear cell (green - cytoplasm, blue - nucleus) using
reflectance confocal microscopy.
