Endfoot areas of generated Voronoi-diagram-based endfoot patterns. Given the mean endfoot areas estimated in Fig. 3 (solid lines), \(n=1000\) realizations were generated for varying vessel diameters. Individual dots correspond to a single astrocyte endfoot of a realization. The shown mean corresponds to \(A^A\) and \(A_V\). Individual endfoot coverage areas show large variability (in agreement with what is reported in [6, Fig.2d]) and follow a Gamma distribution for a given vessel diameter (and mean endfoot area), cf. Fig. 4
