現生鳥類の嘴における三叉神経の骨格内経路：diceCT法を用いた3D比較解剖学
現生鳥類 9 目 9 種（ダチョウ、マガモ、セキセイインコ等）および外グループのワニ類 2 種を対象に、ヨウ素対比増強マイクロCT（diceCT法）を用いてクチバシ内部の三叉神経3次元走行パターンを全描出し、骨の孔や管などの骨学的痕跡との対応関係を比較解剖学的に解析した研究です。 解析の結果、ワニや祖先的な化石主竜類では前上顎骨（クチバシ先端の骨）内に眼神経（V1）と上顎神経（V2）の両方が進入し...

現生鳥類のくちばしにおける三叉神経の骨格内経路：diceCT法を用いた3D比較解剖学
現生鳥類 9 目 9 種（ダチョウ、マガモ、セキセイインコ等）および外群のワニ類 2 種を対象に、ヨウ素対比増強マイクロCT（diceCT法）を用いて嘴内部の三叉神経3D走行パターンを全描出し、骨の孔や管などの骨学的痕跡との対応関係を比較解剖学的に解析した研究です
解析の結果、ワニや祖先的な化石主竜類では前上顎骨内に眼神経（V1）と上顎神経（V2）の両方が進入していたのに対し、現生鳥類では上顎神経の前上顎骨内走行が著しく退縮し、

DiceCT lets us study muscles in 3D w/o dissection, but manual segmentation is slow & subjective. Testing XFiber + GoodFibes across 8 mammals shows XFiber matches manual results w/far less effort—promising for comparative muscle studies.

Any publicly accessible scans can be used. Stained scans such as diceCT are needed for visualizing soft tissues. Segmentation of the tissues of interest is required before rendering (see steps 4-5 of our pipeline). We are happy to provide assistance or advice if needed during the process.
