Multimodal SWAN visualization detail

Gallery

Representative images from the SWAN project

A curated visual overview of first-version media, emphasizing microscopy, registration, MNI-space correspondence, and quality control.

Brightfield Histology

High-resolution brightfield histological detail from a human brain section — Histology Brightfield histological detail
Microscopic anatomical contrast motivating the SWAN atlas framework.

Gallocyanin-stained brightfield histological section — Histology Gallocyanin-stained section
Brightfield histology showing tissue-level detail relevant for annotation and multimodal registration.

Darkfield Microscopy

Darkfield microscopy of a human brain section — Darkfield Darkfield microscopy
Complementary contrast for selected subcortical, diencephalic, and brainstem anatomy.

Darkfield microscopy showing fiber-rich structures — Darkfield Fiber-rich contrast
Darkfield microscopy contributes additional anatomical contrast for interpretation and registration.

Blockface Imaging

Blockface image of the SWAN specimen — Blockface Blockface reference
Intermediate anatomical reference between gross tissue geometry and processed histological sections.

Three-dimensional blockface visualization in orthogonal views — 3D teaser 3D blockface visualization
A visual teaser for orthogonal navigation concepts in the SWAN Viewer pipeline.

Registration

Brightfield histology-to-blockface registration example — 2D registration Histology to blockface
Example of slice-wise alignment supporting local deformation correction.

Brightfield histology-to-specimen MRI correspondence example — 3D registration Histology to specimen MRI
Correspondence between reconstructed histological information and specimen-specific imaging space.

Brightfield histology transformed toward MNI space — MNI space Histology to MNI space
Coordinate-space bridge between microscopic anatomy and standardized neuroimaging.

MNI Space and Quality Control
