Abstract
Non-invasive assessment of axon radii via MRI is of increasing interest in human brain research. Its validation requires representative reference data that covers the spatial extent of an MRI voxel (e.g., 1mm2). Due to its small field of view, the commonly used manually labeled electron microscopy (mlEM) can not representatively capture sparsely occurring, large axons, which are the main contributors to the effective mean axon radius (reff) measured with MRI. To overcome this limitation, we investigated the feasibility of generating representative reference data from large-scale light microscopy (lsLM) using automated segmentation methods including a convolutional neural network (CNN).
