title: Soft tissue examination of the fetal rat and rabbit head by magnetic resonance imaging.
abstract: The use of magnetic resonance imaging of the fetal rat and rabbit head, as an alternative to the traditional methods of fixation and preparation of serial sections, is described. Labeled magnetic resonance images of normal head anatomy have been provided as a reference for use when evaluating the internal structures of the head.
