Abstract
Cerebral microhemorrhages (CMH) are the accumulation of hemosiderin-iron deposits which are associated with cognitive impairments. CMH are suspected to be the result of the deterioration of cerebral microvessels. Despite the clinical significance of CMH, our understanding of CMH formation remains limited. Standard histology for CMH visualization is constrained by thin planar views obtained sparsely throughout brain tissue. This limitation can misrepresent the true size and extent of CMH. Here we incorporate tissue clearing to capture a complete view of CMH and compare it to that of a two-dimensional approach.
