Proper Citation: Cortical Box Method: Quantitative analysis for gene expressions in rodent cortex (RRID:SCR_013387)

Description: The Cortical box method is an analytical method that standardizes the serial coronal sections of rodent cortex for quantitative analysis (details are written in the manual document). There are several tools necessary for this analysis. Currently, a program CxStand which is a core program of Cortical Box method is available for download. It standardizes a set of serial sections of rat cortex into standard rectangulars. Cortical box method was developed by Dr. Junya Hirokawa in the Yamamori Lab to map c-fos immunoreactivity in the rat cortex. This method was now applied to analyze the in situ data. From the original image, the cortical region is taken out and transformed, then normalized. You do this to a set of coronal sections of a rat cortex. Then, the cortex becomes a box. You can now slice the cortical box at desired lamina positions for layer maps. For more information, please refer to, http://www.nibb.ac.jp/brish/Gallery/corticalboxE.html. Requirements Cortical Box Method software is written in Labview and requires Labview version 7.0 (or later) and Vision development version 7.0 (or later). Labview and Vision are products of National Instruments (http://www.ni.com/ ). I confirmed (*) the Cortical box software works in the latest versions of Labview (ver.8.6) and Vision development (ver. 8.6), which can be downloaded without charge in the National Instruments web site (http://www.ni.com/ ) and can be used as evaluation softwares for 30 days. I tested the programs on PCs running the Windows family of operating systems. *A VI called image to image does not exist in Labview 8.6, please replace it into image to image 2.
