1. Cytology and the Microscope
The branch of science/biology dealing with the study of cells and cell behavior; you need a microscope to perform cytology!
Light Microscope: limited by the properties of visible light (wavelength)
Electron Microscope: uses a beam of electrons which has a smaller wavelength than visible light
Instead of glass lenses focusing the light in the light microscope, the TEM uses electromagnetic lenses to focus the electrons into a very thin beam. The electron beam then travels through the specimen you want to study.

3. Two classes of E.M.:
Scanning electron microscopes produce a 3D image of the exterior of a dead specimen
Transmission E.M. deliver the best resolution of a thin slice of a prepared specimen.
Both types are extremely expensive, cumbersome pieces of equipment.

4. They both have extremely good resolution and are used extensively at universities, well equipped labs, and teaching hospitals.
Resolution = the ability to distinguish between 2 objects that are very close together.
