Research Abstract |
It is useful to observe the three-dimensional structure of medical and biological samples by using ultrahigh voltage electron microscope tomography. Taking several tens or more images with slightly different tilt angle of sample is necessary, however, a mechanical rotation accuracy is worse than of a few micrometers. Therefore, we accomplished fast taking of the tilt image series with automatic focusing and field position correction. To capture the 61 CCD images with a resolution of 4000 X 4000 pixels is completed in 30 minutes of half of conventional method.
