Super-resolution microscopy methods enable resolution of biological molecules in their cellular or tissue context at the nanoscale. Different methods have their strengths and weaknesses. Here we present a method that enables correlative confocal, structured illumination microscopy (SIM) and single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) imaging of structures involved in formation of invadopodia on the same sample. This enables up to four colors to be visualized in three dimensions at a resolution of between 120 and 10 nm for SIM and SMLM, respectively.
