Outline of Final Research Achievements |
X-ray computed tomography (X-ray CT) is quite useful in medical fields. However, it is not suitable for successive inspection of living plants or small creatures, because of critical damage in chromosome caused by x-ray exposure. This study aims to develop non-invasive optical projection tomography to enable observation of growth process of the living things. The concept of our study is to correct the optical path without any refraction using comparison between experimental observation data and numerical simulation data. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed by numerical simulation of the cylindrical specimen.
