New High Resolution X-Ray Micro-CT from Xradia

New High Resolution X-Ray Micro-CT from Xradia A new high resolution X-Ray micro-CT from Xradia has been installed and is ready for users. The new micro-CT provides 1 micron resolution compared to the 5 micron resolution from SkyScan 1172 micro-CT currently in VMIL. Xradia micro-CT also comes with proprietary ultrafast reconstruction program that takes minutes rather than hours to reconstruct a 3-D model from hundreds of 2-D images. The new micro-CT includes a micro-focused 10W (40~150 KeV) Tungsten tube, TE-cooled 4 mega-pixel CCD camera, 5 microscopic objectives (2X, 4X, 10X, 20X and 40X), and high-precision 4-axis motorized sample stage. The 40~150 KeV X-ray energy level allows a wide spectrum of materials that can be imaged by the new system. Please contact Leilei Yin for more information.

ITG Animation Makes Semifinals in NSF Visualization Challenge

An animation produced by ITG to illustrate multidisciplinary research on artificial bone development was awarded a Semifinalist honor in the 2007 Visualization Challenge (sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the journal Science). The animation, titled 'Mandible Reconstruction Project', chronicles a unique effort that involved the University of Illinois College of Engineering, the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, Sandia National Laboratories, and Carle Foundation Hospital to develop an alternative approach to bone replacement--one that obviates the bone harvest surgery without diminishing the superior clinical outcomes associated with autografting. Portions of the animation have been shown on television news programs nationwide, and the full work was previously selected to be part of SIGGRAPH 2004's Computer Animation Festival.

ITG Lands $2 Million Award from NSF for New X-Ray Nanotomography Instrument

ITG has been awarded $2 million from the National Science Foundation's Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) program to acquire a revolutionary multi-length scale x-ray nanotomography (nano-CT) instrument. This device, which will be the first such instrument at a US university, will support nondestructive internal 3-D imaging of samples as thick as 0.1 millimeter while resolving features as small as 30 nanometers in width. The award, which was for the full amount requested ($1.998 million), puts it in the top 1% of MRI awards historically (in terms of funding level), and is the largest MRI award ever made to UIUC. As a result, the nano-CT will become the most expensive instrument in ITG by about $1 million, and should cement UIUC as a center for micro- and nano-tomographic imaging. The grant effort was led by ITG Director Ben Grosser and Materials Science Professor Paul Braun. We hope to have the instrument up and running in Spring 2008.

Microscopy Suite Installs New Stereology Microscope

ITG's Microscopy Suite has a new stereology microscope built around the Zeiss AxioImager A1 upright microscope and software from MBF Bioscience and Optronics MicroFire Progressive Scan CCD camera. The system is equipped with 10 port filter wheels and a six port filter cube assembly making it the most flexible light microscope for fluorescent, bright field and reflected light imaging in the Suite. Conventionally, stereology is a discipline that utilizes proven statistical sampling techniques to estimate the total population of cell types in an organ, usually the brain. Our new 'scope now fully supports Beckman's neuroscientists, but because of the flexibility of its hardware, the instrument can also assist researchers with samples from other disciplines like thin films, mirrors, polished metallurgical samples, integrated circuits, dyed fibers, diffuse metallic specimens, composite materials, and polymers. Please contact Jon Ekman for more information.
