Medical Definition of Conventional Transmission Electron Microscopy
1.
A term applied to 'normal' transmission electron microscopy imaging. The electron beam is passed through a thin film sample (typically ~1-200 nm thick). Bright field diffraction contrast images are formed with the direct (undiffracted) beam. Dark field images are formed with a selected diffracted beam. CTEM imaging is used in the general observation of samples and careful selection of the diffracting conditions of the sample will allow the analysis of defect structures within the sample.
