Biomedicines Vol. 10, № 7. P. 1556 (1-15)Abstract: Traditionally histology is the gold standard for the validation of imaging experiments. Matching imaging slices and histological sections and the precise outlining of corresponding tissue structures are difficult. Challenges are based on differences in imaging and histological slice thickness as well as tissue shrinkage and alterations after processing. Here we describe step-by-step instructions that might be used as a universal pathway to overlay MRI and histological images and for a correlation of measurements between imaging modalities. The free available (Fiji is just) ImageJ software tools were used for regions of interest transformation (ROIT) and alignment using a rat brain MRI as an example. The developed ROIT procedure was compared to a manual delineation of rat brain structures. The ROIT plugin was developed for ImageJ to enable an automatization of the image processing and structural analysis of the rodent brain.
