Now 100 years later, the cases themselves are historical artifacts. To peer inside them non-invasively, researchers used medical computed tomography (CT) scans to reveal the dinosaur bones within, as well as …
The researchers used CT scans of dinosaur fossils and modern-day specimens to create a 3D computer model of a dinosaur jaw and identify where muscles attach to bone. They then used the model to simulate muscle forces under …
Using computed X-ray tomography (CT) scans and microscopic analysis of bone samples, the researchers also identified fractures in two vertebrae in the middle of the dinosaur's tail, and...
Paleontologists have made use of color spectral Computed Tomography (CT) images to obtain highly detailed images of the fossilized tail of a 66 million year old …
Feathered Dinosaurs Were Venomous Predators; CT Scans Show Dinosaur Tail Was a Bone Crusher; Scars Reveal How Triceratops Fought; References:
CT scans and an examination of its microscopic structure showed that the "button-shaped protuberance" on the tail vertebrae wasn't just a strange area of bone growth – it also appeared to...
Researchers took a closer look at the amber piece using CT scans and realized that it belonged to a true dinosaur, not an ancient . The researchers detailed their find in a …
There, they were able to do a CT scan of the bone. It was the first time a 3-D model had ever been created of a fossil with this type of pathology. …
