Exploring the numerical results

In the test_brain/output/analysis directory is a summary.csv file which you can open in Microsoft Excel (or similar) to view a summary of the results. This file lists, for each brain area, the number of cells detected, the volume of the brain area, and the density of cells (in cells per mm^3). This is the file you'll most likely use for statistical analysis. It will look something like this (but with an entry for each brain area):	
structure_name
left_cell_count
right_cell_count
total_cells
left_volume_mm3
right_volume_mm3
total_volume_mm3
left_cells_per_mm3
