Volume Electron Microscopy (VEM) is crucial for 3D tissue imaging but often produces anisotropic data with poor axial resolution, hindering visualization and downstream analysis. Existing methods for isotropic reconstruction often suffer from neglecting abundant axial information and employing simple downsampling to simulate anisotropic data. To address these limitations, we propose VEMamba, an efficient framework for isotropic reconstruction. The core of VEMamba is a novel 3D Dependency Reordering paradigm, implemented via two key components: an Axial-Lateral Chunking Selective Scan Module (ALCSSM), which intelligently re-maps complex 3D spatial dependencies (both axial and lateral) into optimized 1D sequences for efficient Mamba-based modeling, explicitly enforcing axial-lateral consistency; and a Dynamic Weights Aggregation Module (DWAM) to adaptively aggregate these reordered sequence outputs for enhanced representational power. Furthermore, we introduce a realistic degradation simulation and then leverage Momentum Contrast (MoCo) to integrate this degradation-aware knowledge into the network for superior reconstruction. Extensive experiments on both simulated and real-world anisotropic VEM datasets demonstrate that VEMamba achieves highly competitive performance across various metrics while maintaining a lower computational footprint.
