1. A method, comprising: using a first particle-optical device to image sample sections of a series of sample sections, coordinates of an imaged point of the sample being acquired and stored so that the coordinates of the imaged point of the sample are associated with the image of the point of the sample; selecting a volume of interest of the sample (VOI); transmitting the coordinates of the selected VOI to a second particle-optical device; and using the second particle-optical device to image the selected VOI, wherein the method comprises imaging a plurality of planes of a sample section to obtain a 3D image of the selected VOI.
