Abstract :
The authors examine phenotype differences in wildtype and retinoblastoma (Rb) knockout specimens of mouse placenta. Their method for volume visualization of tissue-level intermixing at a microscopic scale reveals differences between the specimens that aren´t obvious in a stack of 2D images alone
