Description
We investigated six cryobiopsy samples from six deceased patients (patients C03 to C08 from Barisione et al. 2020 doi.org/10.1007/s00428-020-02934-1) by using thin section electron microscopy (Cortese et al. 2022 doi.org/10.1007/s00428-022-03308-5). A detailed description of the methods and the data set is provided in the download container.
Data set 09 contains stitched image montages of thin sections (selected areas) through the lung of patient C03 which were acquired by scanning electron microscopy (C03_A & C) or transmission electron microscopy (C03_B). The images show accumulation of cells and debris in the alveolar cavity.
