infocus #66 June 2022 Synchrotron X-ray Nanoprobe Analysis of Archaeological Samples: A Feasibility Study

Experiments were carried out using the FIB-SEM at ePSIC, Diamond Light Source to collect 3D volume imaging data on different dental tartar samples with a range of different porosities, from a dense packed matrix to a more open structure. The structural density was assessed using image segmentation and analysis techniques.
