SpineRacks and SpinalJ for efficient analysis of neurons in a 3D reference atlas of the mouse spinal cord

Summary: Spatial analysis of spinal neurons is currently limited by a lack of tools for efficient preparation and imaging of the whole spinal cord (SC) and the absence of a 3D reference atlas. Here, we describe protocols for efficient sectioning of whole SC using SpineRacks and subsequent image regi...
