Abstract
FIB-SEM has become an essential tool for studying neural tissue at resolutions below 10×10×10 nm, producing datasets superior for automatic connectome tracing. We present a technical advance, ultrathick sectioning, which reliably subdivides embedded tissue samples into chunks (20 µm thick) optimally sized and mounted for efficient, parallel FIB-SEM imaging. These chunks are imaged separately and then ‘volume stitched’ back together, producing a final 3D dataset suitable for connectome tracing.
