Nondestructive visualization of virtual slices through objects

The Ottawa Hospital Research Institute’s Micro CT Core Facility uses the Bruker Skyscan 1272 to produce extremely high resolution X-ray images.

The system can nondestructively visualize up to 209 Megapixel virtual slices through objects. More than 2600 slices can be reconstructed after a single scan using new16Mp and 11Mp X-ray detectors in up to three offset positions. Due to phase-contrast enhancement, object details as small as 0.35um can be detected.

In order to use the Facility you will need to follow these three below:
