Specimen Systems

SCANCO Medical µCT systems excel at high-resolution, non-destructive 3D imaging of specimens in vitro. µCT systems are used worldwide to study diverse materials ranging from bone and scaffolds to concrete or even (with additional cooling) snow and ice crystals.

Your choice of µCT system depends heavily on the following factors:

  • the maximum size of samples to be scanned.
  • the desired resolution.

Most µCT models can be fitted with a sample changer and a filter changer to increase scanner versatility.

If you would like assistance when selecting the ideal system for your needs, please contact our experienced sales team.
