Finite element 3D reconstruction of the pulmonary acinus imaged by synchrotron X-ray tomography.
The alveolated structure of the pulmonary acinus plays a vital role in gas exchange function. Three-dimensional (3D) analysis of the parenchymal region is fundamental to understanding this structure-function relationship, but only a limited number of attempts have been conducted in the past because of technical limitations. In this study, we developed a new image processing methodology based on...
متن کامل3D Microstructure Visualization of SiC Particle Reinforced Al Matrix Composites by X-Ray Synchrotron Tomography
Microstructural aspects of composites such as particle size, shape, and distribution play important roles in deformation behavior. 3D visualization of porosity and Fe-rich inclusions in three dimensions is critical to a thorough understanding of fatigue resistance of metal matrix composites (MMC) because cracks often initiate at these defects. In this paper we have used X-ray synchrotron tomogr...
متن کاملA Review of the Applications of Synchrotron Radiation in Archaeological Sciences
The scientific research regarding investigation, characterization and protection of the archeological specimens is manifested through a notable participation of multidisciplinary subjects and experts, scientists and archeometrists. One of the main principals which are considered by archaeometrists in the study of the precious specimens is the utilizing nondestructive methods. As an example, in ...
متن کاملImage reconstruction from sparse data in synchrotron-radiation-based microtomography.
Synchrotron-radiation-based microcomputed-tomography (SR-μCT) is a powerful tool for yielding 3D structural information of high spatial and contrast resolution about a specimen preserved in its natural state. A large number of projection views are required currently for yielding SR-μCT images by use of existing algorithms without significant artifacts. When a wet biological specimen is imaged, ...
متن کاملEfficient estimation of the total number of acini in adult rat lung
Pulmonary airways are subdivided into conducting and gas-exchanging airways. An acinus is defined as the small tree of gas-exchanging airways, which is fed by the most distal purely conducting airway. Until now a dissector of five consecutive sections or airway casts were used to count acini. We developed a faster method to estimate the number of acini in young adult rats. Right middle lung lob...
