compute_syn_distances

single_cell_parser.analyze.synanalysis.compute_syn_distances(cell, synType, label=None, consider_gap_to_soma=False)

Computes distances (to soma) of all synapses on the dendrite.

Parameters:
cell : single_cell_parser.cell.Cell

cell object with attached synapses.

synType : str

presynaptic cell type to compute distances for.

label : str, optional

dendrite type (e.g. “ApicalDendrite”) to compute distances for. Default: None (all dendrites)

Returns:

1D array of distances to soma

Return type:

numpy.ndarray

Raises:

KeyError – if the cell does not have synapses of type synType.
