Transmission electron microscopy uses a variety of techniques to image and characterize samples. For example:

• High resolution imaging can resolve individual atoms
• Cryo-EM can reveal structures and molecular interactions of biological complexes
• STEM imaging can differentiate atom types
• X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) can quantify elemental composition
• Tomography can resolve the 3D structure of materials and biological tissues
