Advances in high‐resolution cryo‐volume electron microscopy (cvEM) imaging for unicellular and multicellular organisms

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Cryo‐Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy (cryoFIB‐SEM) using samples fixed by high‐pressure freezing uniquely enables high‐resolution cryo‐volume Electron Microscope (cvEM) images of cell ultrastructure to be obtained from whole cells and complex tissues in their near native state. As the freezing process also preserves fluorescence,
