The 3D printers we’re most familiar with use the fused deposition process, in which hot plastic is squirted out of a nozzle, to build up parts on a layer by layer basis. We’ve also seen ...

Computed tomography (CT) scanning provides images of sections of the body (slices) using special X ray equipment and sophisticated computers. CT scans of internal organs, bone, soft tissue and blood ...

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can provide high-resolution reconstructions of retinal anatomy in a rapid and reproducible fashion and, we believe, is ideal for precisely modeling the disease ...

Tomography is a technique whereby the body is imaged in 'slices' or sections. Typically the imaging modality is X-ray radiography, and the slices can be viewed separately or in combination.

Why are there special quantities to quantify radiation in CT, such as Computed Tomography Air Kerma Index? Absorbed doses and organ doses cannot be measured directly within a patient, because it would ...

A recent study using atom probe tomography (APT), however, successfully characterized trace element distributions in framboids, or spherical clusters of microcrystals of pyrite, with improved ...

This observation hints at a functional role for the empty cages found in neurons." Cryo-electron tomography is an imaging technique that takes 2D images of cryogenically frozen samples at multiple ...
