dear Luci,
we too are interested in buying a microCT, and are examining some
instruments just now. Essentially, we want to scan hundreds of similar,
small and low-density objects (insects), and recently tested both
SkyScan 1174, and 1172 (Brucker). Besides, I will be glad to know what
is the better choice of microCT to be used on insects. Many thanks for
any information, Angela Roggero

Dear Luci,
The very short answer is, it depends on your application (scanning
hundreds of same thing or a multi-user facility in which users will
want to scan rocks, biological specimens, engine parts). The major
companies I am familiar with are Bruker (Skyscan), Scanco and GE.
Expect to pay anywhere from $250K to $700K, depending on the scanner
you choose and your support agreement.
Whatever you choose, there are very good open source packages. If you
are spending tens of thousands of dollars on your analysis and
visualization software, you are wasting money.

I am planning to apply for funding for a micro-CT unit (and associated
software. Does anyone have suggestions of models they would recommend?
Thanks in advance
