Spatial development of transport structures in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) fruit [PDF]
The void network and vascular system are important pathways for the transport of gases, water and solutes in apple fruit (Malus x domestica Borkh). Here we used X-ray micro-tomography at various spatial resolutions to investigate the growth of these ...

The design of a low-cost 3D printed flow cell for synchrotron computed microtomography. [PDF]
We present and demonstrate the use of a low‐cost 3D printed flow cell for the study of liquid–solid systems using synchrotron computed microtomography. The designs are freely available with this publication.This work presents the design and development of a 3D printed flow cell tailored for X‐ray computed microtomography of liquid–solid systems.

Microstructural characterization of a Canadian oil sand [PDF]
The microstructure of oil sand samples extracted at a depth of 75 m from the estuarine Middle McMurray formation (Alberta, Canada) has been investigated by using high resolution 3D X-Ray microtomography ($\mu$CT) and Cryo Scanning Electron Microscopy ...

Morphological characterization of a polymeric microfiltration membrane by synchrotron radiation computed microtomography [PDF]
Most commercial polymeric membranes are prepared by phase inversion. The performance of the membranes depends greatly on the morphology of the porous structure formed during the different steps of this process.

In Vivo Time- Resolved Microtomography Reveals the Mechanics of the Blowfly Flight Motor [PDF]
Dipteran flies are amongst the smallest and most agile of flying animals. Their wings are driven indirectly by large power muscles, which cause cyclical deformations of the thorax that are amplified through the intricate wing hinge.

Study of the Off-Axis Fresnel Zone Plate of a Microscopic Tomographic Aberration
A tomographic microscopy system can achieve instantaneous three-dimensional imaging, and this type of microscopy system has been widely used in the study of biological samples; however, existing chromatographic microscopes based on off-axis Fresnel zone ...

A new method for reconstructing brain morphology: applying the brain-neurocranial spatial relationship in an extant lungfish to a fossil endocast [PDF]
Lungfish first appeared in the geological record over 410 million years ago and are the closest living group of fish to the tetrapods. Palaeoneurological investigations into the group show that unlike numerous other fishes—but more similar to those in ...
