We developed a methodology for quantitative 3D in silico modeling (q3DISM) of cerebral amyloid-β (Aβ) phagocytosis by mononuclear phagocytes in rodent models of Alzheimer's disease. This method can be generalized for the quantitation of virtually any phagocytic event in vivo.

Many biological structures lack easily definable landmarks, making it difficult to apply modern morphometric methods. Here we illustrate methods to study the mouse baculum (a bone in the penis), including dissection and microCT scanning, followed by computational methods to define semi-landmarks that are used to quantify size and shape variation.

We have developed a novel protocol for studying heterocellular population dynamics in response to perturbations. This manuscript describes an imaging-based platform that produces quantitative datasets for simultaneous characterization of multiple cellular phenotypes of heterocellular populations in a robust manner.
