The movies below show volume renders of OPT models.
Images of autofluorescence from unstained samples were captured using a FITC filter.

The movies below show anatomical domains defined in CS23 models.
The domains have been manually defined using specialised software and then visualised using commercial rendering packages.
14685 domains: neural tube - orange; eye - dark blue; otic vesicle - yellow; dorsal root ganglia - light blue; heart - red; liver - dark green;
gastrointestinal tract - cyan; lungs and trachea - lilac; adrenal - dark grey; kidney - pale pink.

Age is approximately 56 postovulatory days
Length is approximately 23 - 32mm
The eyelids are starting to fuse at margins. The superficial vascular plexus is rapidly approaching the vertex of the head. The limbs have increased markedly in length and show more advanced differentiation of their subdivisions.
