X-rays offer high penetration with the potential for tomography of centimetre-sized specimens, but synchrotron beamlines often provide illumination that is only millimetres wide. Here an approach demonstrated termed Tomosaic tomographic imaging large samples extend beyond field view X-ray system.

X-ray ptychography is becoming the standard method for sub-30 nm imaging of thick extended samples. Available algorithms and computing power have traditionally restricted sample reconstruction to 2D slices. We build on recent progress in optimization high performance solve ptychographic phase retrieval problem directly 3D. Our approach addresses samples that do not fit entirely within depth focus system. Such pose additional challenges because internal diffraction effects sample. demonstrate...
Conventional tomographic reconstruction algorithms assume that one has obtained pure projection images, involving no within-specimen diffraction effects nor multiple scattering. Advances in x-ray nanotomography are leading toward the violation of these assumptions, by combining high penetration power x-rays, which enables thick specimens to be imaged, with improved spatial resolution decreases depth focus imaging system. We describe a method where scattering and samples modeled multislice...

One strategy is tiled set local tomograms by rotating specimen...
Neural microarchitecture is heterogeneous, varying both across and within brain regions. The consistent identification of regions interest one the most critical aspects in examining neurocircuitry, as these structures serve vital landmarks with which to map pathways. Access continuous, three-dimensional volumes that span multiple areas not only provides richer context for identifying such landmarks, but also enables a deeper probing microstructures within.
