X4 POSEIDON App Notes

The X4 POSEIDON is a powerful benchtop micro-computed tomography instrument, the first of its kind to apply the platform design of a floor-standing system to a compact benchtop.


Phenotyping and Screening of Drosophila Melanogaster (Fruit Fly)

Fruit flies, specifically Drosophila melanogaster, are extensively used in biomedical research due to their genetic simplicity and rapid life cycle.


Imaging and Analysis of Dental Restorations and Fillings

MicroCT has become an indispensable tool in dental research, providing high-resolution, non-destructive imaging capabilities that allow for detailed examination of tooth structures and dental restorations.


3D Non-Destructive Analysis of Zebrafish


Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have become a prominent model organism in biomedical research due to their genetic similarity to humans, rapid development, and transparency during early life stages.


Analysis of Annual Growth Rings in Wood Cores

MicroCT is a non-destructive imaging technique that provides high-resolution, three-dimensional visualizations of wood’s internal structures.


Imaging of kidney microstructure and blood vessel network

MicroCT or micro-computed tomography, is a game-changer for researchers across various fields.


Benchtop MicroCT - Evaluating Mouse Embryos

Mouse embryos are pivotal in biomedical research due to their genetic and physiological similarities to humans. They serve as models for studying developmental processes, genetic disorders, and congenital anomalies.


Submicron Imaging of Bone Osteocytes and Vessels

Submicron imaging of mineralised bone opens the field of ultra-structural analysis of bone including the distribution of osteocyte lacunae (spaces) and blood vessel canals.


Imaging of fossil ammonites and shark teeth

MicroCT imaging is limited only by size and X-ray opacity of samples, and the X4 POSEIDON in its dual X-ray detector configuration is able to achieve excellent scan results with large dense samples as well as high resolution at submicron voxel sizes for smaller samples.
