Abstract
A neutron-transmission computed tomography scanning system was built for scanning biological materials. An O2 filtered beam of 2.35 MeV neutrons was used for the measurements. The interactions of these energy neutrons with samples simulating biological materials were more sensitive than X-rays to variations in the content of the material, providing the ability to produce high quality images. The neutron scans revealed that neutrons were an effective radiation for the imaging of biological materials.Keywords
