Full description
University of Texas High-Resolution X-ray CT Facility Archive 1112 Ahlberg: Powichthys: Scans of the front of the fossil skull of Powichthys (SVD 2156), Spitsbergen, Early Devonian, Lochkovian/Pragian, for Dr. Per Ahlberg of The Natural History Museum, London. Specimen scanned by Matthew Colbert 28 October 2004. 16bitrot: 1024x1024 16-bit TIFF images. II, 180 kV, 0.133 mA, no filter, air wedge, no offset, slice thickness 1 line (= 0.0531 mm), S.O.D. 155 mm, 2000 views, 2 samples per view, inter-slice spacing 2 lines (= 0.0531 mm), field of reconstruction 50 mm (maximum field of view 50.79406 mm), reconstruction offset 5000, reconstruction scale 1200. Acquired with 27 slices per rotation. Spike- and ring-removal processing done by Susan Garlock based on correction of raw sinogram data using IDL routines “RK_SinoDeSpike” and “RK_SinoRingProcSimul” with default parameters. Reconstructed with beam-hardening coefficients: 0.0, 0.7, 0.2. Rotation correction processing done by Susan Garlock using IDL routine “DoRotationCorrection”. Image orientation adjuisted to vertical using Photoshop. Images flipped because specimen was scanned bottom to top. Total slices = 405.
