Table 2.

Standard deviations (expressed as percent of hippocampal volume) across three datasets.

Dataset Absolute volume Relative to brain volume
σpopulation σsubject σpopulation σsubject
Ex-vivo high-resolution 5.0% 1.1% 1.7% 0.99%
Ex-vivo low-resolution 4.8% 1.3% 3.0% 1.0%
In-vivo 4.8% 3.1% 2.2% 1.7%

The σsubject for the ex-vivo datasets represent variability when scanning the same specimen repeatedly. The volume of the hippocampus in one hemisphere of the mouse brain is approximately 9.9 mm3.
