How to perform an optical CT scan: an illustrated guide

In this article, which accompanies one of the morning "refresher" sessions at the IC3D Dose 2012 conference, a workflow for optical CT scanning is described and the following steps in that workflow are illustrated: sample positioning, refractive index matching, the importance of apparatus cleanliness to the imaging process, the pre-scan and image reconstruction and post-processing.
