Surface renderings of an example of CT-scanned honey bee head and reconstructed brain neuropils.
(A) Frontal view of the head of a forager bee (ID 79, hive H4). (B) Surface rendering of the head with the mandibles removed. (C) Overlay of the head and reconstructed neuropils. (D) Frontal cross-section of the tomogram with the segmentation boundaries of the mushroom bodies (MB), central complex (CX), antennal lobes (AL), medullae (ME), lobulae (LO) and other neuropils (OTH). (E) Frontal view of the reconstructed MB (dark blue), CX (sky blue), AL (light sky blue), ME (beige), LO (red) and OTH (orange). (F) Dorsal view of the reconstructed neuropils. (B), (C), (E) and (F) were created with ParaView Glance integrated in Biomedisa.
