Abstract EN
The three-dimensional (3D) analysis of anatomical ultrastructures is extremely important in most fields of biological research.
Although it is very difficult to perform 3D image analysis on exact serial sets of ultrathin sections, 3D reconstruction from serial ultrathin sections can generally be used to obtain 3D information.
However, this technique can only be applied to small areas of a specimen because of technical and physical difficulties.
We used ultrahigh voltage electron microscopy (UHVEM) to overcome these difficulties and to study the chemical neuroanatomy of 3D ultrastructures.
This methodology, which links UHVEM and light microscopy, is a useful and powerful tool for studying molecular and/or chemical neuroanatomy at the ultrastructural level.
