Abstract

|
|
The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a relatively new tool in the biomedical field. It differs significantly in design and range of application from the conventional or transmission electron microscope (TEM). The major use of the SEM is in the stereoscopic-like or three dimensional analysis of biologic surface structure in a continuous practical range of magnification from 20 to 20,000 X with a resolution of approximately 300 to 500 Angstroms. The marked increase in spatial information obtained from a given specimen is due to an increase in the depth of microscopy. These new views bridge the gap between the understanding of the ear provided by TEM. This article introduces a general concept of SEM and the stereoscopic anatomic structure of the inner ear.
