Micro-CT in Orthodontic Procedures and Research

Micro-CT is a valuable 3D imaging technique that is being used in orthodontics procedures and clinical research. In this webinar, taking place on February 6, 2020, Petra Julia Koch and Paul Zaslansky, who will introduce benchtop micro-CT as a tool to help optimize orthodontic bracket removal procedures and other approaches in the orthodontics clinic, including how to manage hypomineralized teeth.

			What is High-Resolution TEM (HR-TEM)? TEM uses similar principles to conventional light microscopy, but electrons are transmitted through a sample to produce an image, rather than light. This technique is a very reliable way to produce high-resolution images, which rely on the interaction of electrons with the atoms in the sample.

			An Overview of Laser Confocal Microscopy LCM is a form of microscopy which utilizes laser excitation, fluorescent light and optical screening techniques to produce a highly refined, digital image.

	Researchers visualize molecular organization of TNFα receptor molecules Whether a sick cell dies, divides, or travels through the body is regulated by a sophisticat-ed interplay of signal molecules and receptors on the cell membrane. One of the most im-portant molecular cues in the immune system is Tumour Necrosis Factor α (TNFα).

	Discovery on heart cell research may lead to inaccurate data Researchers studying proteins in heart cells have unexpectedly discovered that a common microscopy fluorescent protein carries reversible photobleaching properties. This phenomenon may lead to inaccurate or unreliable data.

	Bright field Versus Dark-field TEM Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a common technique for studying nanomolecular structures that cannot be resolved using traditional light microscopy. Compared with SEM (scanning electron microscopy) TEM provides images of cross-sections of a target subject and is suited to the study of objects such as organic tissue and crystalline lattices.

	Comparing Optical and Electron Microscopy for Nanomaterial Analysis All microscopy techniques have features that make them more suited to certain samples and analysis scenarios, and in this article, we’re going to look at the suitability of optical microscopy and electron microscopy for analyzing nanomaterials.
