Segmentation
Display image description
Manual segmentation of neuronal and glial components of the Node of Ranvier using Xvoxtrace. Objects were surfaced using Synu.
Segmentation file description
Tar file containing the surfaced objects in Synu format (*.synu) and the Viewdata file required for viewing using Synuview. The original trace file (*.trace) containing the manual contours and selected images of surface renderings are also included.
