Geology

MicroCT, or micro-computed tomography, is a high-resolution imaging technique used in Earth science to non-destructively investigate the internal structures of rocks, minerals, fossils, and other geological samples. By utilizing X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images and 3D reconstructions, microCT enables scientists to analyze features such as porosity, grain size, mineral distribution, and fossil morphology. This technology provides valuable insights into geological processes, sedimentary structures, and Earth's history, aiding research in disciplines like petrology, paleontology, sedimentology, and environmental science.
