Figure 1
Examples of PCE reconstruction slices of zebrafish bones (a, b) propagation-based PCE-microCT versus Zernike-nanoCT (c). Both data types reveal the bone architecture (orange arrows) and micrometer-sized voids (white arrows). The Zernike-nanoCT reconstruction slice (c) unveils both the larger voids (white arrows) and smaller nano-porosity (white circles). Despite the increased contrast, Zernike-nanoCT becomes degraded by the appearance of halo and shade-off artifacts that are clearly identifiable at the edges of the sample (bright streaks and darker orange arrows). Some glue used for sample mounting is also visible on the outer bone surface on the right.
