Influence of iodine staining on micro-CT imaging. The continuous arrow points to the unstained structure (1), the dotted arrow to the stained structure (2). A Annular ligament. Note: the ligament is better visible in the unstained sample. B Tensor tympani muscle. *: Region of the line plot shown in Fig. 4, approximately 3 mm long. C Tympanic membrane. Note: unstained area in the lower and perforated area in the upper part (probably retraction after staining). D Ligaments of malleus. Open arrowhead = superior malleal ligament. Filled arrowhead = lateral malleal ligament. Scale bar = 3 mm
