Study: Neuron structures are dissimilar between the brain areas in every individual It was reported that the volume of the brain areas such as the superior temporal gyrus and anterior cingulate cortex reduces in schizophrenia but a precise change of three-dimensional structure of neuron has remained unclear. Dr. Itokawa and their colleague performed Nanotomography experiments using Fresnel zone plate optics at the BL37XU beamline of the SPring-8 synchrotron radiation facility and at the 32-ID beamline of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) of Argonne National Laboratory. A total of 34 three-dimensional image datasets of layer V of the BA22 cortex were blinded by coding dataset names and subjected to a computerized procedure to build Cartesian coordinate models of tissue structures.
