Abstract

Multimodal Imaging Techniques In article number 2506183, Aref Valipour, Jungmin Ha, and Stephen N. Housley present μCodes, a microgrid system designed to enhance sample navigation, alignment, and co-registration of images obtained from various optical and electron microscopy techniques. μCodes is a platform for tracking and locating targets or cells of interest across different imaging modalities with high precision. The recognition of the μCodes, is dependent on the fabrication quality, imaging conditions and instruments, as well as the specific application of the platform. The code size could be selected such that the footprint of the μCodes, matches the field of view of the instruments in the pipeline of the intended application.
