X-ray microscopy using computerized axial tomography

J C Elliott et al. J Microsc. 1985 Jun.

Abstract

Computerized axial tomography with MoK alpha X-radiation has been used to study a 0.8 X 0.8 mm column of human femoral bone at a resolution of 15 micron. This non-destructive X-ray microscopic technique allowed 'sections' to be made with 25 micron separation and the distribution of linear absorption coefficient in each section to be determined.
