Correlative Micro-CT and TEM imaging

By Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia

We are developing new TEM methods for the observation of biological samples. The aim is to develop a technique that, in cases of pathologies spread across entire organs or districts, gives a global view at low resolution and a local view at ultrastructural level at the same time. In order to reach this goal, we designed a correlation method between X-Ray tomography (Micro-CT, in collaboration with SYRMEP beamline at Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste) and TEM (Parlanti et al. 2017).
