The formation and progression of several vascular diseases in the brain is accompanied by changes in the vessel micro-structure and morphology. A clear visualisation and an in-depth knowledge of the vascular system is essential for better understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms of neurovascular disorders. Micro-Optical Sectioning Tomography has shown potentials in imaging the vessel...

With the advent of highly brilliant third-generation synchrotron X-ray sources in vivo imaging of biological samples has recently reached micrometer spatial and sub-second temporal resolutions. Analyzing high-resolution 3D biological structures such as lung tissue, however, still poses a great challenge due to its complexity and hierarchical branching scheme. In this work we demonstrate the...

Interrupted in situ tensile tests are used in industry to study the evolution and accumulation of damages under load in glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRPs).
During these tests, a test specimen is scanned multiple times using a computed tomography (CT) device under increasing load.
The obtained series of CT scans is analyzed by material engineers regarding defects to draw conclusions...

In tomography, a series of 2D projections are acquired as a 3D object is rotated about one or more axes, after which a 3D reconstruction of the object is obtained. Implicit in the approach is the idea that the only differences between the projections are the known rotational angles, with no additional motions or distortions of the object. This condition is easy to meet in traditional forms of...
