Development of a Stereotaxic Device for Low Impact Implantation of Neural Constructs or Pieces of Neural Tissues into the Mammalian Brain

Figure 10

Montage of a sagittal section of the brain showing a scaffold (white arrow) linking the substantia nigra to the striatum (5.5 mm anterior to bregma, 2.5 mm lateral to the midline and 11.5 mm below dura, 55° from the vertical). Dashed line indicates insertion trajectory and the arrow points to the scaffold. Note the small piece of tissue remaining in the caudal tip of the scaffold construct.
