每年处理 200 个病例的小型电子显微镜实验室中的电子显微镜师可以在这段时间内生成至少 2000 张电子显微照片。这些电子显微照片存储在文件柜中，慢慢地占用了现有的实验室空间。相关图像数据通常位于单独的文件系统中。这种类型的存储系统对于快速检索用于研究、教学或患者材料回顾性审查的电子显微照片组来说效率低下。在微型计算机上实现的电子显微镜图像库可以灵活地同时访问数字化电子显微照片及其相关文本数据。除了更有效检索的优点之外，文本数据和数字化电子显微照片的电子存储还提供了减少此类数据的存储空间的优点。电子显微镜图像库初始版本的实施表明，未来版本必须提供更高的数字化电子显微照片分辨率和足够的电子大容量存储来支持如此大的图像库。数据库技术和大容量存储的不断发展使得对电子显微镜图像库进行进一步的改进是值得的。
An electron microscopist in a small electron microscopy laboratory that processes 200 cases per year can generate at least 2000 electron micrographs within this time period. These electron micrographs are stored in filing cabinets, which slowly encroach on existing laboratory space. Related image data are often located in separate filing systems. This type of storage system is inefficient for rapid retrieval of sets of electron micrographs for research, teaching, or retrospective review of patient material. An electron microscopy image base, which is implemented on a microcomputer, can provide flexible and simultaneous access to both digitized electron micrographs and their relevant textual data. In addition to the advantage of more efficient retrieval, electronic storage of textual data and digitized electron micrographs also offers the advantage of decreased storage space for this type of data. Implementation of the initial version of the electron microscopy image base demonstrated that future versions must provide improved resolution of the digitized electron micrograph and sufficient electronic mass storage to support such a large image base. Ongoing developments in database technology and mass storage make it worthwhile to pursue additional refinements of the electron microscopy image base.
