Damage Reduction using Alternative Scanning Methods in Electron Microscopy

The main limitation to perform localized analysis in electron microscopy is radiation damage.

Image Analysis

Many different modalities lead to the generation of large amounts of 2D or 3D image data (TEM, SEM, X-ray CT, LM, etc).

Science update

New scanning technique overcomes longstanding challenge in cryo-SEM imaging

Researchers at the Rosalind Franklin Institute have developed a new approach to scanning electron microscopy (SEM) that dramatically reduces obstructions caused by charging artefacts in frozen biological samples. The advance, described in a paper published in Nature Communications, allows scientists…
