Micro CT
What is Micro CT
Micro computed tomography is a method for 3D X-Ray imaging capable of extremely high resolution (from 0.45um ex-vivo to 4um in-vivo) and details whether in-vivo or ex-vivo.
2D X-ray images are taken at small at hundreds to thousands of angles which are later reconstructed to a 3D model within the computer.
For in-vivo applications, micro-CT is used for whole-body anatomy imaging, high-resolution bone structure analysis, and lung imaging. By injecting a contrast agent (either GNP or iodine-based) it is possible to acquire extraordinary images of the blood vessels and the cardiovascular system.
For Ex-vivo and material sciences, it is possible to image objects at extreme resolution for structure composition and porosity analysis. From non-destructive analysis of semiconductors, electronics, 3D printed objects, and more.
