UKRI-1818 Micro CT System

Tender description

3D X-Ray MicroCT Imaging System. Utilising innovative X-ray technology, MicroCT systems non-destructively capture 2D images, slice-by-slice, through solid samples whilst they are progressively rotated on their axis. Slices are then processed into detailed 3D models allowing not only see through a tissue, or organ, but also to see inside and make out object details as small as 0.4-0.5 μm within an entire undissected organism and make out sub-micron structural, spatial and volumetric detail. In addition we required a 4-year maintenance contract. . Lot 1: 3D X-Ray MicroCT Imaging System.
