Synopsis
In this work we present a simple set-up for high resolution postmortem imaging at ultra high field strength. The processed images have high, as well as homogeneous gray/white matter contrast over the whole brain. Additionally, during post-processing, the background signal of the fixation liquid is almost completely removed, allowing for an optimal image registration process after histological sectioning.
