Mouse Embryo Membranous Labyrinth Development Metrics from E9.5 to E14.5

218 surface models of membranous labyrinths from C57BL/6N mouse embryos were generated and analyzed. The dataset provides detailed anatomic descriptions and metric information, including angles and volumes, for developmental stages E9.5 to E14.5. It was created by Barbara Maurer-Gesek using high-resolution episcopic microscopy data from the 'Deciphering the mechanisms of developmental disorders' program.

Use Cases

• Stage-specific phenotyping of mutant mouse embryos based on provided metric reference data.
• Characterizing the spectrum of inner ear malformations based on objective measurements of angles and volumes.
• Researching the causality of congenital malformations using detailed anatomic descriptions of normal development.

Strengths

• Dataset contains 218 surface models derived from high-resolution episcopic microscopy.
• Provides objective metric information, including angles between planes and volumina of labyrinth components.
• Data is stage-specific, covering development from E9.5 to E14.5.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data is specific to C57BL/6N mouse embryos, which may limit generalizability.
