Volumetric atlas of the rat inner ear from microCT and iDISCO+ cleared temporal bones
We have reconstructed 34 structures from the rat temporal bone, which are available as both image stacks and printable 3D objects in a shared repository for download. These can be used for teaching, localizing cells or other features within the ear, modeling auditory and vestibular sensory physiology and training of automated segmentation machine learning tools.
