Osteometabolix (OMX) Imaging Services has developed “State of the Art” diagnostic capabilities using a high resolution micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Micro-CT is x-ray imaging in 3D, by the same method used in hospital CT (or “CAT”) scans, but on a small scale with massively increased resolution.
OMX is equipped with sophisticated SkyScan in-vivo micro-CT image, for the non-invasive quantification of bone and mineral adaptations after pharmaceutical, orthopaedic, orthodontic and bio-material interventions in experimental laboratory animals. Also, industry opportunities with advanced materials.
Micro-CT Scanning represents true 3D microscopy, where very fine internal structure of objects is imaged non-destructively;
- No sample preparation,
- no staining
- no thin slicing
- Client will receive back intact sample
OMX is offering this unique advanced service on a fee-for-service basis for:
- High Resolution Micro-Computed Tomography Imaging of Bone
- High Resolution Micro-Computed Tomography Imaging for Industrial Applications
