Abstract
Mammalian brains are extremely complex: even the rather small mouse brain contains around one hundred million neurons. Mapping the three-dimensional cytoarchitecture from the nanometer- to centimeter-scale within the context of the entire brain is a key step towards understanding brain function. This thesis presents developments in neuroimaging with virtual histology based on hard X-ray microtomography. This emerging technique holds great promise for non-destructive three-dimensional analysis of centimeter-sized post mortem brain tissue with true micrometer resolution.
