Thermo Apreo VS SEM

The Apreo Volume Scope (VS) is equipped for standard scanning electron microscopy, as well as serial-block face imaging. For serial block face imaging, ultrathin sections are cut inside the microscope and series of images are acquired from the freshly cut block face, while the sections are discarded. The automated system is capable of imaging large z-stacks at isotropic 10x10x10 nm resolution. The series of images can be processed for 3D reconstruction of cells and tissues, with sufficient resolution to identify small vesicles, organelles and neural connections.
