Image for X-ray micro-CT

X-ray micro-CT

X-ray micro-CT (micro-computed tomography) is an advanced imaging technique that creates detailed 3D models of objects’ internal structures. It uses X-rays to capture many cross-sectional images from different angles, which a computer then reconstructs into a high-resolution, three-dimensional image. This method allows scientists and engineers to examine the interior of materials or biological samples non-destructively, revealing features like internal cracks, pores, or the arrangement of tissues, all without cutting or damaging the sample. Micro-CT is valuable in fields from materials science to medicine for analyzing complex internal details with precision.
