Efficient and Accurate Synapse Detection With Selective Structured Illumination Microscopy on the Putative Regions of Interest of Ultrathin Serial Sections

Critical determinants of synaptic functions include subcellular locations, input sources, and specific molecular characteristics. However, there is not yet a reliable and efficient method that can detect synapses. Electron microscopy is a gold-standard method to detect synapses due to its exceedingl...
