Electron microscopy as a tool for scientific illustrators.
Medical and biological illustrators can be aided in drawing small specimens by micrographs from the scanning (SEM) or transmission (TEM) electron microscope. These detailed photographs act as a reference because they show surface detail in exquisite resolution. To help the illustrator understand this tool, a functional explanation of the electron microscope is provided and techniques for application are presented.
