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 li...

Introduction: The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of X-ray spectra on the sensitivity of a polymer gel dosimeter imaged with a conventional computed tomography (CT) scanner. Material and Methods: The whole process of CT imaging of an irradiated polymer gel was simulated by MCNPX Monte Carlo (MC) code. The imaging of polyacrylamide gel was accomplished by means of a co...

X-ray ptychography is a scanning variant of coherent diffractive imaging with the ability to image large fields of view at high resolution. It further allows imaging of non-isolated specimens and can produce quantitative mapping of the electron density distribution in 3D when combined with computed tomography. The method does not require imaging lenses, which makes it dose efficient and suitabl...

congenital lobar emphysema is a rare cause of respiratory distress during infancy which is cured by surgery. we are reporting three cases of congenital lobar emphysema with different presentations of the disease. chest x-ray was the basis of diagnosis but confirmatory lung computerized tomography was also used. the emphysematous lobe was left upper lobe in two infants and right upper and middle...

Image reconstruction is an important task in X-ray computed tomography. In this paper we discuss the results of morphological analysis of test objects in high-noise conditions and compare image reconstruction using two widely employed methods in computed tomography, namely Filtered Back Projection and Algebraic Reconstruction Technique. In our test tomography experiments, we used a laboratory X...

Previous very successful soft X-ray microscopy tomography experiments [1-3] have been performed at a single photon energy. They have provided high spatial resolution, density based 3D images, but with only limited chemical information. We are developing computed angle-scan tomography in a scanning transmission x-ray microscope (STXM) for chemical visualization of a 3D spatial volume. Our goal i...

Abstract The structure of five rare filigree spheres from a seventeenth century shipwreck was examined in order to unravel their condition, manufacturing process and function. This study focuses on the application non-invasive imaging techniques: optical microscopy, X-radiography, X-ray micro-computed tomography neutron computed tomography. A valuation different aspects applied techniques made,...
