Radiation technology such as X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT) is a powerful tool for materials research. Such non-destructive imaging allows us to visualize in three dimensions (3D) the internal structure of without damaging specimen. This paper thus presents our studies on application microfocus CT, synchrotron radiation and integrated microtomography diffraction (CT-XRD) method advance ce...

for obtaining reservoir petrophysical properties, for example porosity, non-destructive methods such as x-ray computed tomography, ct, seems to be precise and accurate. porosity is deducted from the ct image with a single scan via different techniques, such as pore space detection by image segmentation techniques then correlation with porosity. more than one hundred samples with carbonate litho...

introduction: vertical root fracture (vrf) is common in endodontically treated teeth. conventional and digital radiographies have limitations for detection of vrfs. cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) offers greater detection accuracy of vrfs in comparison with conventional radiography. this study compared the effects of metal artifacts on detection of vrfs by using two cbct systems. methods a...

background: in many cases of ild (interstitial lung disease), overlap diagnosis is considered. here, a few cases with diagnosis of a variety of ilds, where eventual open lung biopsy has been performed are selected. reference will be made to reliable sources to show that nsip can still be a variant of uip (usual interstitial pneumonia) with better treatment response and prognosis. case presentat...

introduction: cholesteatoma is traditionally diagnosed by otoscopic examination and treated by surgery. the necessity for imaging in an uncomplicated case is controversial. this study was planned to investigate the usefulness of a preoperative high-resolution computed tomography (hrct) scan in depicting the status of middle ear structures in the presence of cholesteatoma and also to compare the...
