Non-invasive 3D-Visualization with Sub-micron Resolution Using Synchrotron-X-ray-tomography

13.6K
We used synchrotron X-ray tomography at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) to non-invasively produce 3D tomographic datasets with a pixel-resolution of 0.7µm. Using volume rendering software, this allows the reconstruction of internal structures in their natural state without the artefacts produced by histological...

Tree Core Analysis with X-ray Computed Tomography

1.6K
Here we show how to process tree cores with an X-ray computed tomography toolchain. Except for chemical extraction for some purposes, no further physical lab treatment is needed. The toolchain can be used for biomass estimations, for obtaining MXD/tree-ring width data as well as for obtaining quantitative wood anatomy data.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Physics

Background:

  • X-ray computed tomography (CT) is crucial for clinical diagnosis but struggles to differentiate substances with similar X-ray absorption, such as iodine contrast agents and calcium.
  • K-edge subtraction (KES) imaging, which uses dual-energy CT scans, can distinguish these materials but typically requires large synchrotron facilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the first proof-of-principle experiment of filter-based KES CT at a compact synchrotron X-ray source.
  • To demonstrate the capability of separating iodine contrast agent and calcium using this novel method.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a filter-based KES CT method at the Munich Compact Light Source (MuCLS), a compact synchrotron source utilizing inverse-Compton scattering.
  • Acquisition and analysis of dual-energy CT scans to perform material differentiation.

Main Results:

  • Clear separation of iodine contrast agent and calcium was achieved.
  • Generated CT volumes exclusively depicted either iodine or calcium, showcasing the method's specificity.
  • Successful proof-of-principle for KES CT at a compact synchrotron source.

Conclusions:

  • Filter-based KES CT at a compact synchrotron source is feasible and effective for material differentiation.
  • This technique holds significant potential as a valuable tool in pre-clinical research.
  • Advances in compact synchrotron technology enable advanced imaging methods outside large-scale facilities.
