Research Abstract |
We attempted to gage the tilt angle using a capacitive liquid-based inclinometer when the projection images for tomographic reconstructionwere acquired. As a result, the tile angle measured has the same accuracy as those obtained by the marker-based alignment, which is most popular alignment method in tomography. When the enough fiducial markers are not available in the projection images, measuring the tilt angle will be the useful method to obtain the better tomogram.
