Photograph of a 5 d.p.f. zebrafish illustrating the important organs and the measuring location.

?L? denotes the total length of the tested zebrafish. A projected length ?a? was measured to provide quantitative results of zebrafish axial rotation.

3D reconstruction of selected vessels of interest through the present zebrafish orientation manipulation platform. Sampled images of 4 d.p.f. zebrafish were captured at various axial rotational angles with respect to the original position through the modulation of duty cycles from 0% to 100% with 10% increment. Representative images at duty cycles of 10% (a), 20% (b), 30% (c), and 40% (d). (e) Final 3D reconstructed vascular network.

3D reconstruction of heart and peripheral vascular network through the present zebrafish orientation manipulation platform. The tested zebrafish is at the development stage of 4 d.p.f. Captured 2D and reconstructed results are shown in panels (a) and (b), respectively.
