The three-dimensional reconstruction procedure of the hard tissue and soft tissue of the hyolaryngeal apparatus in postnatal day 30 of Rhinolophus pusillus. A One example of the tomographic image obtained from micro-CT scanning without staining. B Three-dimensionally reconstruction process of the morphology of the hyolaryngeal cartilages with the tomographic images. C Three-dimensionally reconstructed morphology of the hyolaryngeal cartilages. D One example of the tomographic image obtained from diffusible iodine-based contrast-enhanced CT method. E Three-dimensionally reconstruction process of the morphology of the hyolaryngeal cartilages with the tomographic images. F Three-dimensionally reconstructed morphology of the hyolaryngeal cartilages, intrinsic laryngeal muscles, and vagus nerve (cranial nerve X). Left side of the hyolaryngeal morphology is shown
