The results of plastination of head slices are unsatisfactory when muscles, connective tissue and the brain are impregnated with one and the same resin. The epoxy- or polyester-plastination technique renders transparent either the head without the brain (e.g. E 12) or the brain without the adjacent tissues (e.g. P 40). A new technique is described which allows a homogenous transparency of both the head and the brain.
