Recovering root system traits using image analysis exemplified by two-dimensional neutron radiography images of lupine.

Root system traits are important in view of current challenges such as sustainable crop production with reduced fertilizer input or in resource-limited environments. We present a novel approach for recovering root architectural parameters based on image-analysis techniques. It is based on a graph representation of the segmented and skeletonized image of the root system, where individual roots a...

Discrete tomography in neutron radiography

Discrete tomography (DT) is an imaging technique for reconstructing discrete images from their projections using the knowledge that the object to be reconstructed contains only a few homogeneous materials characterized by known discrete absorption values. One of the main reasons for applying DT is that we will hopefully require relatively few projections. Using discreteness and some a priori in...

Neutron Radiography, Techniques and Applications

After describing the principles of the "in pool" and "dry" installations, techniques used in neutron radiography are reviewed. Use of converter foils with silver halide films for the direct and transfer methods is described. Advantages of the use of nitrocellulose film for radiographying radioactive objacts are discussed. Dynamic imaging is shortly reviewed. Standardization in the field of neut...
