Introduction

New digital camera technology has vastly improved the capabilities of electron microscopy (EM). Within seconds high quality digital images can be captured, stored and managed. However, still, little has been done to further increase the benefits provided by the digitalisation. VirusimagingTM brings new solutions to the global playground by offering effective ways to share and discuss images and revolutionizing image analysis tools – taking digital EM imaging of viruses to a new level. Whether you are an experienced EM user searching for new image management and analysis tools, or an EM novice curious to find out what digital imaging can do to enhance your research VirusimagingTM is the tool for you.
