As an orthopedic surgeon I use CT imaging basically daily. I can understand your almost child-like amazement. The first time I saw terrarecon about 20 years ago do on the fly reconstruction of CT imaging I was similarly amazed. Now I use intra-operative fluoro CT (medtronic O-arm, and Globus E3D) almost every day for 3D imaging to robotically assist screw placement for spine surgery. Fun fact: CT scanners used to take forever to get an image series done because the amount of processing power to reconstruct the images was too much for the computers of the time. With increasing slice counts on the scanners, and faster processing it now takes mere seconds to scan an entire person. An MRI, by contrast, works by inducing spin in the protons in the water of the material, and the image is taken after a certain specified amount of time after the spin is induced. That time you wait to take the image is a property of which type of MRI sequence you are trying to obtain. That time you need to wait is a property of the physics whereby the image is produced and cannot be sped up.

My uncle worked at EMI Central Research Laboratories UK where the first CT scanner (or EMI Scanner as it used to be) was produced in late 1960s. With the early machines the entire process took days to complete lol as the scanner required many hours to obtain the raw data for a single scan and a few more days were needed to reconstruct an image from the data.

@cyrilio 16 днів тому

Do these machine scan using just one frequency or can you change the density visualization of a scan? I've had a couple CT scans done in the last 3 years and can only see one density level on the data I requested. BTW super cool to see a slice by slice of your brain or other parts of you body. The tech improvements compared to 10 years ago is massive (had a CT scan done of my brain then too).

You should scan a Video 8 / Hi8 home video camera/camcorder. They have HUNDREDS of mechanical parts packed into a tiny form factor since they are essentially tiny VCR's. The engineering behind these tiny devices with so many tiny intricate moving parts has always blown my mind, would LOVE to see one scanned!

@derkreativste4419 17 днів тому

fun fact: your main concern when putting electronics in there should not be the bit flips (you can easily reflash a bios or so) but with enough radiation you drastically lower the gate threshold voltage of the mosfets in the IC which may start to leak and misbehave. Which would also invalidate your performance/ temperature and lifetime testing. This is highly dependent on the node size and type of the IC. i wonder how many kRad they pick up during the 12h Test.

@Finny869 17 днів тому

A dosimeter would be a relatively cheap way to see how much accumulation the item got. What's the normal dose when getting a few minute CT scan, a couple mSv? But then running one full tilt for that long would be interesting to see the total.

@acheronhades1747 17 днів тому

I really want to see a video where they torture test electronics to failure by gate threshold, just to see how much chips can take.

@derkreativste4419 17 днів тому

@@acheronhades1747 yes! I would love to see how this kind of highly integrated stuff would fail. One thing to consider is that unpowered chips can withstand a lot more than powered (biased) chips. Im not an expert myself but our radiation expert at work explained it a bit like the radiation is weakening the oxide layer of the Mosfet and with a higher voltage the atoms can be easily knocked out of place. There are special radiation tolerant chips that cost a fortune.

@dwirandypradhika6752 17 днів тому

He said in he video that the detector is simply a visible light camera sensor, not a native x-ray detector and the piece is supposed to turn the x-ray into visible light. Am I missing something here? And if it works like how Linus said it works, how is a piece of carbon fiber supposed to work optically to shift the wavelength of photons? I'm guessing the scintillator is not the carbon fiber but a sheet of some sort of heavy element that kinda acts like a reusable film that the visible light camera then take pictures of? But I don't see how this can produce enough visible light to be captured by a normal camera sensor, so is it just a big ass silicon stuck directly onto it? Or is that not how a scintillator works?

@keeleyhoek 17 днів тому

@@dwirandypradhika6752 You completely understand the physics, but the "scintillator" does that job, not the carbon fiber; there is just a carbon fiber panel in the way to protect the more expensive panel underneath. There isn't any fancy "wavelength shifting" going on, it's just that he scintillator is a material which glows when it absorbs x-rays---i.e. emits visible light---which of course is enough.

@Physinaut 17 днів тому

@@dwirandypradhika6752 the scintillator is a crystal structure (normally caesium- CsI:Ti - or Gadox for the detectors I use), that absorbs the X-ray photon. This excites the lattice temporarily, and when it de-excites it releases lower energy photons. Behind the scintillator is effectively a large camera that detects that light (the ones I use are 2000-3000 pixels each side, so 4-9 million pixels total; but I suspect the detector they’re using has less pixels since 900 images is on the low end of what I use since I’m used to ~4500 images for a single scan. Looking at the data sheet Linus showed the Lumafield source they have is somewhat low power (300uA max current) but that means they don’t need as much lead, so keeps its cheaper and moveable, whereas the company I work for aims at getting finer features (and has sources that can get upto 5+ times that current while still keeping sharp-ish images (which is all relative)), but unfortunately the price tag is anywhere from 100-200k all the way up to 1-2 million for the top end system (think lead lined room). I’ve done scans as quick as 30 seconds (didn’t need fine detail), and as long as 70 hours (on a 2+ metre car part)

@DerekKnop 17 днів тому

I worked in an electronics failure analysis lab in college and we had a manual version of this machine, and it was already a bit old when I started working there. We would mount an object on either a plate or in a gripper and then manipulate it with joysticks in three dimensions over an x-ray projector. We could snap pictures of solder joints, BGA chips, and such for clients. It was great non destructive testing and it's really cool seeing the automated version of this in action now.

In fact, all your reconstruction work can be done without their software if you are able to obtain the DICOM file for the projection images (i.e. the many 2D xray images) and there are free/open-source software to view the reconstructed images as slices and as 3D models. The main problem you will run into when you do this is the mapping of HU value (standard unit used in measuring attenuation of the scanned material on a human CT) to specific materials. There might be "phantoms" available for purchase that will be able to help you do this mapping though.

This entire thing is an advertisement yet they failed to indicate that (like a bunch of other large channels). If they received a single penny off the price of that machine, or is just on loan, it's considered sponsorship under the law. The constant name dropping makes it obvious and "truth in advertising laws" are clear on this.

I’ve been wanting this technology for so long it would be wonderful to be able to scan an engine or a carburetor or a power supply basically anything and detect problems with it without even taking it apart as well as see if there are design flaws without taking it apart. This would be super easy to spot defects.

Pretty amazing! So I read about some of the very early CAT scans used in a hospital -- something like 1978 or 1979. They had a DEC VAX upgraded from the base 1MB to either 4 or 8MB (which I think the RAM alone cost about $100,000). The scan took a regular amount of time, but they had to take a guess where the brain tumor was to tell the computer what slices to make. It took overnight (like 8-12 hours) to calculate *4* slices and luckily they caught it in their slices. This being able to do a full 3D scan and just roll through the slices is pretty amazing.

I've studied biomedical engineering and we had something similar a bit larger called Zeiss Metrotom, costs about 1M euro at the time we used it for our bakalar and master thesis but also outside companies like automotive and other industries were sending some pieces to scan it (for a price of course) those machines are super awesome and useful can find a lot of issues before going to mass production

I've visited Lumafield's office in San Francisco, great team to meet and ask questions. Their solution is very innovative for what it does, especially when it doesn't need an industrial X-Ray tech on staff. I'm told they do work with aerospace and defense contractors, so I might actually meet an aerospace engineer ("Rocket scientist") there next time. I could see this used for QA checks of completed assemblies, where an incorrectly assembled part in say a Fuel Control Unit in the engine of an F-16 could cause a $30m jet to crash, and has at least once. One disappointment when I visited their office, I only met a neurosurgeon there, and no rocket scientists there.

Things like "audiophile" amplifiers or filters, certain development PCBs, knockoff/counterfeit electronics or similar. You could also scan processors to inspect the type, density and dimensions of thermal interface material used between the die and heat spreader without initial destructive inspection.

@Scott-uo7ns 17 днів тому

As a radiologic technologist you get the highest detail the farther from the source. You get the greatest magnification the closer to the xray source. You can show this by using a flashlight. Put your hand close the flashlight and far from the wall and it will be fuzzy or blurry. Put your hand close to the wall farther away from the light source and the shadow will Be much more finely detailed.

@LeLe-pm2pr 17 днів тому

If the source is close enough to a single point in space, and what's limiting you is sensor resolution, you get more detail by magnifying the item. In the (much more likely) case where sensor resolution is not the limiting factor, for example with a flashlight, a flat wall and any item, because the flashlight is not an optimal light source, putting the item too close to it would result in the shadow having a large penumbra, visible on the wall, which has a nearly infnite resolution.

@Scott-uo7ns 16 днів тому

I was having the same thought process. I think he's saying he can see more things by being able to magnify them, but he used the word "detail" inappropriately. He can see more physical parts by magnifying them, but his resolution/sharpness of those parts (what we consider detail) will decrease with that increased OID.
