Magnified more than 2500 times and fully three-dimensional the neuron model is depicted in its natural setting. With the membranous envelope cut away the cytological ultrastructure organelles and inclusions within the cell body are depicted in contrasting colours.

A section of the axon lifts off to expose the enveloping myelin sheath and neuro-lemma as well as the Schwann cell that formed them. Dendrites of the neuron extend into the background and synaptic vesicles carrying neurotransmitters can be seen via a cutaway view.
