X-ray imaging and X-ray computed tomography (XCT) provide non-destructive
characterization capabilities on opaque objects across a range of length scales, observing …

In this tutorial, we describe X-ray microtomography as a technique to nondestructively
characterize material microstructure in three dimensions at a micron level spatial resolution …

Imaging is the cornerstone of materials characterization. Until the middle of the present
century, visible light imaging provided much of the information about materials. Though …

X-ray computed tomography (XCT) is a rapidly growing field of non-destructive 3D
inspection, offering a new approach for high-resolution imaging when visible-light and …

The design and construction of a modular high resolution X-ray computed tomography
(XCT) system is highlighted in this paper. The design approach is detailed for meeting a …

X-ray computed tomography (CT) has established itself as an important tool in industrial
inspection and material sciences. Outside medical radiology, today X-ray CT is applied to …

The three-dimensional visualization of the inner microstructural features of objects and
materials is an aspect of relevant interest for a wide range of scientific and industrial …

As the techniques and resolution for three-dimensional spatial analysis have advanced in
the last decade, it is now possible to map in detail the microstructure of multiphase materials …

X-ray computed tomography (XCT) with flat-panel matrix detectors is a promising non-
destructive method to scan and characterize external and internal structures of a specimen …

Since its development in the 1970s (Hounsfield, Br J Radiol 46 (552): 1016–1022, 1973)[1],
X-ray tomography has been used to study the three dimensional (3D) structure of nearly …
