Figure 3

High-throughput μCT results: (a) the first X-ray image from each scanned segment of the 50 ml tube from top (tip) to bottom (cap), containing 72 frog and lizard specimens. (b) 3D renderings of the individual segments in the same positions, at 17.8 µm voxel size, (c) the stitched 3D volume at the same resolution, with fossils colour-coded by straw, (d) reconstructed cross-section of the same tube in side and (e) top views, (f) cross-section of an agamid lizard jaw showing contrast between the matrix, bone, and teeth, (g) cross-section of a skink mandible with a shadow motion artefact, (h) an example of beam hardening caused by a dense surface.
