eHistology Viewer

 

Below are sets of transverse sections for each stage CS10 to 11PCW.

H&E sections, scanned at X20 or X40 are shown for the embryonic stages, while microCT images from 9µm scans are shown for the fetal stages.

Sagittal and frontal sections will be added as they become available.

Annotation of the sections is a work in progress. A guide on how to view the sections is available here.
