TLDR
A user-friendly, computationally-efficient 3D-CTF correction tool, NovaCTF, that is compatible with standard tomogram reconstruction workflows in IMOD is presented and it is found that high-resolution structures can be obtained with much smaller subtomogram averaging datasets than are required using 2D- CTF.
