Vascular architecture of the guinea pig cochlea. Visualization of microvessels in an explanted cochlea by two-photon microscopy. The main image shows an -projection of those sections which are between the vertical yellow lines in the -section on the right. This -section is placed at the vertical yellow line in the main image. The horizontal yellow line indicates the position of the -section shown at the top, mostly covered by the inset. *, radiating arteriole; ▲, stria vascularis capillaries.
