This volume discusses different approaches to workflows for large volume electron microscopy - from preparation of samples to their imaging in a variety of microscopes - in some cases also applying correlative techniques. The chapters in this book cover topics such as correlative super resolution and electron microscopy to detect molecules in their native cellular context; low-threshold access to serial section arrays; improving serial blockface SEM by focal charge compensation; FIBSEM analysis of interfaces between hard technical devices and soft neuronal tissue; and image processing for volume electron microscopy. In Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.

Cutting-edge and authoritative, Volume Microscopy: Multiscale Imaging with Photons, Electrons, and Ions is a valuable resource for novice and expert scientists interested in learning more about this evolving field.

Includes cutting-edge methods and protocols Provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results Contains key notes and implementation advice from the experts
