Three dimensional electron microscopy of cellular organelles by serial block face SEM and ET
Novel serial imaging methods using scanning electron microscopy may be used for 3D morphological studies of plastic embedded biological specimens. Serial block face SEM has already proven an undisputable position in 3D-EM studies of tissues, but it has a lot of potential in cell biology applications too. Electron tomography can be used to complement those studies where higher resolution is need...
متن کاملMicrotubule organization within mitotic spindles revealed by serial block face scanning EM and image analysis
Serial block face scanning electron microscopy (SBF-SEM) is a powerful method to analyze cells in 3D. Here, working at the resolution limit of the method, we describe a correlative light-SBF-SEM workflow to resolve microtubules of the mitotic spindle in human cells. We present four examples of uses for this workflow which are not practical by light microscopy and/or transmission electron micros...

متن کاملAxon tracking in serial block-face scanning electron microscopy
Electron microscopy is an important modality for the analysis of neuronal structures in neurobiology. We address the problem of tracking axons across large distances in volumes acquired by serial block-face scanning electron microscopy (SBFSEM). Tracking, for this application, is defined as the segmentation of an axon that spans a volume using similar features between slices. This is a challeng...
متن کاملCombining quantitative 2D and 3D image analysis in the serial block face SEM: application to secretory organelles of pancreatic islet cells
A combination of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) analyses of tissue volume ultrastructure acquired by serial block face scanning electron microscopy can greatly shorten the time required to obtain quantitative information from big data sets that contain many billions of voxels. Thus, to analyse the number of organelles of a specific type, or the total volume enclosed by a popula...
