Figure 4. Comparative Rendered CCS (blue) and OCS (yellow) in 5 different washed platelets imaged either by SBF-SEM (A-E) or by FIB-SEM (F-J).

Arrowheads in H and J point to examples of thin continuities detected at the higher resolution of FIB-SEM versus SBF-SEM. Note that the thin continuities are rare, low in incidence and the examples pointed to are each of CCD, not OCS. The two imaging methodologies appear to give similar outcomes. Scale bar = 1 μm.
