The illustration on the left depicts a cut cell. The micrographs in the box show the indicated structure – the cut smooth endoplasmic reticulum (a part of a transportation system of the cell). The ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

a. MRA helps resolve the dense actin filaments with SIM imaging. b. MRA helps resolve the mitochondrial cristae cluster with LiveSR imaging. c. SecMRA helps better section the ER tubule structure. d.

A picture is worth a thousand words -but only when it's clear what it depicts. And therein lies the rub in making images or videos of microscopic life. While modern microscopes can generate huge ...

In decades past, researchers and scientists have been constrained by an optical resolution limit—defined over 140 years ago—that established the maximum resolution of an optical system of 200 nm in ...

The services of the IMC are open to everyone at BCM, the Texas Medical Center and beyond. The first step to access the IMC is to set up a virtual or in person meeting to assess investigator’s research ...

It is the computational processing of images that reveals the finest details of a sample placed under all kinds of different light microscopes. Even though this processing has come a long way, there ...
