The corrected phase image of entire mouse brain sample (in air) based on the proposed method. Both cerebral arteries and veins were revealed in (a). The brain structures can also be identified including cerebral cortex, the lateral ventricle (LV), and the third ventricle of cerebrum thalamus and cerebellum (CB).
