Series Section Electron Microscopy (ssEM) has emerged as a pivotal technology for deciphering nanoscale biological architectures. Three-dimensional (3D) registration is a critical step in ssEM, tasked with rectifying axial misalignments and nonlinear distortions introduced during serial sectioning. The core scientific challenge lies in achieving distortion mitigation without erasing the natural morphological deformations of biological tissues, thereby enabling faithful reconstruction of 3D ultrastructural organization. In this study, we present a paradigm-shifting optimization framework that rethinks 3D registration through the lens of manifold trajectory optimization. We propose the first continuous trajectory dynamics formulation for 3D registration and introduce a novel optimization strategy. Specifically, we introduce a dual optimization objective that inherently balances global trajectory smoothness with local structural preservation, while developing a solver that combines Gauss-Seidel iteration with Neural ODEs to systematically integrate biophysical priors with data-driven deformation compensation. Extensive experiments on multiple datasets spanning diverse tissue types demonstrate our method's superior performance in structural restoration accuracy and cross-tissue robustness.
