Micro-CT System Development Takayuki OKAMOTO Micro X-ray computed tomography (micro-CT) is a high-resolution imaging modality that enables three-dimensional visualization of microscopic structures beyond the resolving capability of clinical CT and the human eye. While micro-CT has been broadly adopted for non-destructive inspection in industrial settings, its biomedical engineering applications are rapidly expanding, particularly for ex vivo specimens such as excised organs and histopathological tissue samples. My research aims to accelerate these biomedical applications by advancing the entire micro-CT pipeline, from simulation-driven system design to imaging hardware implementation and system-level optimization, development of reconstruction algorithms, and quantitative analysis of acquired micro-CT datasets. By co-optimizing hardware and computational methods, I strive to achieve task-specific image quality and measurement accuracy, ultimately establishing a robust metrology platform for reliable three-dimensional assessment of microstructures.
