MICRO-RADIOGRAPHY OF LIVING BIOLOGICAL ORGANISMS WITH MEDIPIX2 DETECTOR AND APPLICATION OF VARIOUS CONTRAST AGENTS
Original language description
We describe a newly developed radiographic system equipped with Medipix2 semiconductor pixel detector and a micro-focus FeinFocus X-ray tube tabletop. The detector is used as an imager that counts individual photons of ionizing radiation, emitted by theX-ray tube. The digital pixel detectors of the Medipix family represent a highly efficient type of imaging devices with high spatial resolution better than 1mikrom, and unlimited dynamic range allowing single particle of radiation and to determine theirenergies. The setup is particularly suitable for radiographic imaging of small biological samples, including in vivo observations with various contrast agents (iodine and lanthanum nitrate). Along with the description of the apparatus we provide examplesof application of iodine and lanthanum nitrate contrast agents as tracers in various insects as model organisms. The iodine contrast agent increases the absorption of X-rays and this leads to better resolution of internal structures of b
