Cellular 3D-reconstruction and analysis in the human cerebral cortex using automatic serial sections

Nick Larsen et al. developed a pipeline to collect and image serial sections from fixed human cortex, then apply deep learning to detect pyramidal cells from 3D reconstructions of these sections. Their results reiterate that cortical pyramidal cells are organized in a columnar structure and highligh...
