Three-dimensional rendering of otolith growth using phase contrast synchrotron tomography

A three‐dimensional computer reconstruction of a plaice Pleuronectes platessa otolith is presented from data acquired by the Diamond Light synchrotron, beamline I12, X‐ray source, a high energy (53–150 keV) source particularly well suited to the study of dense objects. The data allowed non‐destructi...

Description
Summary:	A three‐dimensional computer reconstruction of a plaice Pleuronectes platessa otolith is presented from data acquired by the Diamond Light synchrotron, beamline I12, X‐ray source, a high energy (53–150 keV) source particularly well suited to the study of dense objects. The data allowed non‐destructive rendering of otolith structure, and for the first time allows otolith annuli (internal ring structures) to be analysed in X‐ray tomographic images.
