The Allen Cell Types Database constains contains morphological reconstructions generated from bright-field images of biocytin-stained cells. Reconstructions are generated by manually curating the results of an automated segmentation algorithm.  Please see the morphology technical white paper for more details (TODO).

A standard set of morphological features were computed for all reconstructed cells.  A subset of those features are displayed at the top of the cell-specific morphology page:

Feature Name

Description

Max Euclidean Distance

 

Number of Stems

 

Number of Bifurcations

 

Average Contraction

 

Parent:Daughter

 

For a complete list of computed morphological features, please see the morphology technical white paper (TODO).
