XRM State of the Science

3D/4D Imaging and Analysis with X-rays

An Educational Miniseries

What are some of the latest ways that scientists in my field are using X-ray microscopy to gain unique perspective inside their samples?
How does X-ray imaging fit in the landscape of other microscopy techniques, like optical and electron microscopy? When is a 3D and nondestructive approach valuable and necessary?
What are some of the recent technology innovations that are continuing to expand the scope of what XRM can offer the research community?

High resolution X-ray microscopy (XRM) has grown out of the synchrotron community, to provide a critical capability in today’s suite of lab-based characterization equipment. As the field continues to evolve rapidly and new innovations expand the reach of the technique, tune in to this miniseries to gain quick updates on how XRM is making an impact in your field of work.
