X-ray imaging

Seeing is believing

One of the first applications of X-ray discovered by Wilhelm Roentgen was the possibility to collect images (later named radiographs) of the inside of objects or parts of a body. 

This has been used ever since in many different fields, from medicine to material science, from safety to cultural heritage.

X-ray imaging techniques

Empyrean

The intelligent diffractometer

Several techniques make use of high penetration of X-rays. With the Empyrean diffractometer and the hybrid pixel detectors PIXcel3D and GaliPIX3D it is possible to perform the following X-ray imaging measurement techniques:

  • Radiography
  • Computed Tomography
  • X-ray Topography
