摘要
The functioning and construction of micro-computerized tomography (CT) scanners, used in biomedical imaging, is discussed. The features of a typical micro-CT scanner include an X-ray microfocused source; a detector array; an object stage; a system control mechanism; and computing resources for image reconstruction. Micro-CT scanners can be used for bone analysis, to identify phenotypes of small animals, in assessing and monitoring tumours in small animals, and in studies of vascular structures.
