Innervation of the anal canal revisited through micro‐CT imaging
This article demonstrates to utility of micro‐CT imaging for conduction micro‐CT experiments to explore the innervation of the pelvic area in human fetuses. It allows for the creation of intricate 3D models, which show that peripheral nerve crossings occur over the entire length of the rectum and hints towards development and sex related differences in
