Medical / Dental
Micro-computed tomography (microCT) is a cutting-edge imaging technology utilized in medical and dental fields for non-destructive, high-resolution, three-dimensional visualization of biological tissues and structures. Key applications include:
Medical:
Bone Analysis: Detailed imaging of bone microarchitecture, aiding in the study of osteoporosis, bone fractures, and other skeletal disorders.
Soft Tissue Examination: High-resolution imaging of soft tissues, such as blood vessels and cartilage, enhancing the understanding of various diseases.
Implant Research: Evaluation of the integration and performance of medical implants within bone and soft tissues.
Histopathology: Non-destructive imaging of tissue samples for disease diagnosis and research, complementing traditional histological techniques.
Dental:
Tooth Structure Analysis: Detailed 3D visualization of tooth anatomy, including enamel, dentin, and pulp, for research and clinical applications.
Caries Detection: Early detection and characterization of dental caries and other defects.
Orthodontics: Assessment of craniofacial structures to plan and monitor orthodontic treatments.
Implantology: Evaluation of dental implant placement, integration, and surrounding bone health.
MicroCT enhances diagnostic capabilities, treatment planning, and research in both medical and dental fields by providing comprehensive and detailed images of internal structures.
