It was in 2004 that Professor Denk reported his next major invention: serial block - face electron microscopy (SBEM).
Professor Denk's solution — first published in 2004 - was to perform scanning EM not on the cut sections of a tissue sample, but rather on the surface of the tissue block after repeatedly removing each top section — which he called «serial block - face electron microscopy.»
He went on to develop serial block - face electron microscopy, whereby detailed 3D imagery of minute structures within tissue are generated by the repeated removal of thin slices and scanning of the remaining cut surface of samples.
Not exact matches
