Three-Dimensional Microstructure Reconstruction Using FIB-OIM
A new method for reconstructing a three-dimensional microstructure using the focused ion beam-orientation imaging microscopy (FIB-OIM) is introduced. The technique is important for the study of three-dimensional microstructures of materials because it can automatically align (register) a series of parallel sections with both topological information and orientation information at the sub-microme...
متن کاملFIB-SEM imaging of carbon nanotubes in mouse lung tissue
Ultrastructural characterisation is important for understanding carbon nanotube (CNT) toxicity and how the CNTs interact with cells and tissues. The standard method for this involves using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). However, in particular, the sample preparation, using a microtome to cut thin sample sections for TEM, can be challenging for investigation of regions with agglomeratio...
متن کاملThe SEM-FIB Workbench
The Nanorobotics series developed by Klocke Nanotechnik extend Scanning Electron or Ion Microscopes to material processing systems. The included automation allows the whole field of handling, assembly and manufacturing like known from a normal desktop system – now with nano-precision, including various kinds of image generation by using different sensors. Applications are in the field of Materi...
متن کاملFIB/SEM technology and Alzheimer's disease: three-dimensional analysis of human cortical synapses.
The quantification and measurement of synapses is a major goal in the study of brain organization in both health and disease. Serial section electron microscopy (EM) is the ideal method since it permits the direct quantification of crucial features such as the number of synapses per unit volume or the distribution and size of synapses. However, a major limitation is that obtaining long series o...
متن کاملHuman cardiac telocytes: 3D imaging by FIB-SEM tomography
Telocyte (TC) is a newly identified type of cell in the cardiac interstitium (www.telocytes.com). TCs are described by classical transmission electron microscopy as cells with very thin and long telopodes (Tps; cellular prolongations) having podoms (dilations) and podomers (very thin segments). TCs' three-dimensional (3D) morphology is still unknown. Cardiac TCs seem to be particularly involved...
