A synthetic whole brain constructed from the Insect Brain Nomenclature template brain. The original confocal stack was duplicated, mirrored about a vertical axis and then displaced by 392 pixels in \(x\) and then merged with the original, with a linear blend in the overlapping region.

The surface model was constructed in Amira in the Jefferis Lab using a simple median filter, followed by thresholding and a surface simplification.
