Micro-CT attachment for SEM
SkyScan's Micro-CT attachment will add to your SEM a unique
possibility to image and measure 2D/3D morphometry throughout
the entire sample volume, and create realistic visual models
for virtual travel within the object.

 |
The standard SEM image in SE mode displays
the 3D surface of the object as a 2D flat picture.
Object: plastic foam. |
SkyScan's Micro-CT attachment for SEM allows
visualization and measurement of the true 3D
internal microstructure of the object without any
physical cut or additional preparation. |
SkyScan's Micro-CT attachment contains several modules to
add a 3D imaging modality to any SEM without compromising
standard imaging modes. The attachment doesn't require any
changes to the standard SEM construction. The attachment can
be installed in any new SEM or retrofitted to old instruments.
The microscanner is supplied with a connection plate to fit
in to a JEOL instruments object manipulator.
