3D reconstruction of the nerve net, comb rows, sensory cells, mesogleal neurons, and a tentacle from electron microscopy data of a 1-day old ctenophore.

Electron microscope image of a nerve fiber with myelin (in black) in the optic nerve of an MS patient. In yellow, the spaces between myelin layers that are enlarged in MS) ...

IT has become customary in studies of the nerve cell by electron microscopy to apply the term ‘Golgi apparatus’ to appearances suggesting membranes, granules, or vacuoles1. In size, general ...

Germany, have developed a new method that makes it possible for the first time to image the three-dimensional shape of ...

The researchers claim LICONN is the first technology beyond electron microscopy (EM) that is capable of reconstructing brain tissue with all the synaptic connections between neurons.

Last year Drs. De Robertis & Schmidt turned their electron microscope, which is far sharper-sighted than the ordinary “light microscope,” on nerve fibers, the delicate tendrils sent out by ...

W ith the inventions of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in 1931 and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) shortly after in 1937, scientists gained an unprecedented ultrastructural view of the ...

A new scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) technique that modulates the electron beam in response to the scattering rate allows images to be formed with the fewest electrons possible. The ...
