5 Key Challenges in Cryo-FIB Targeting — and How to Overcome Them

Achieving high-accuracy targeting in cryo-focused ion beam (cryo-FIB) workflows is essential for generating high-quality lamellae for cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET). But accuracy doesn’t come easy: successful targeting requires more than a high-resolution image. At every stage in the lamella creation workflow — from identifying the region of interest (ROI) to the final milling step — multiple […]
