Micro-CT
Micro-CT - MicroComputed Tomography
Micro-CT is a high resolution x-ray technique used to image a
wide range of materials. Like medical CAT Scans, the acquired
data can be used to make 3D reconstructions, or images, of the
object. In our work, we image biomaterials such as
hydroxyapatite/tissue and gelatin/gelatin microsphere composites.
Currently, our work is done on a
Skyscan 1172
Micro-CT located at the Beckman Institute. The data from the
micro-CT is processed in AMIRA
software to make 2D and 3D images and histograms of the data.
