Development of low-power Vibro-Thermal Tomography for 3D super-resolution imaging of defects in composites Ghent University
High-performance fiber reinforced polymers (or composites) are widely used in high-tech applications (e.g. in aerospace, wind energy), and require reliable and cost-effective non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques to assure their integrity. A profound NDT technique should not only detect a defect, but also extract quantitative information about its size, depth and severity. Ultrasonic and X-ray techniques are mostly used for inspection of ...
Novel methods and tools for in situ characterization of composite materials and tissues, and their microstructural changes during mechanical testing using X-ray computed tomography KU Leuven
Fast and efficient electron tomography for high-throughput, nondestructive and real-time three-dimensional imaging. University of Antwerp
Cone-beam Computed Tomography is a Fast and Promising Technique for Microstructural Imaging in Clinical Practice KU Leuven
Due to the rising life expectancy, bone and joint diseases (e.g., osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis) have become an important socioeconomic burden. For these diseases, the importance of assessing the bone’s microarchitecture make-up in clinical practice has been emphasized in basic science. However, it remains challenging to assess it in clinical practice.
High-resolution in vivo imaging became possible with the ...
Cofinancing core facility - Centre for X-ray Tomography – UGCT Ghent University
The UGCT is an interfaculty consortium that combines UGent activities around high-resolution X-ray CT. The consortium owns several state-of-the-art devices, the majority of which are self-built. For more than 15 years, the facility has bundled all infrastructure present at UGent for high-resolution X-ray CT for non-in-vivo purposes, and is used together with the expertise and knowledge to provide services, both on an academic and industrial ...
