Elephant Humerus

3D Model

Humerus of an asian elephant Elephas maximus scanned using a Rapiscan-RTT110 X-Ray luggage scanner at Henry Mosely X Ray Facility. The CT scan was processed with Stradwin with medium smoothing. The scanner is capable of scanning several hundred objects an hour. This was an experimental scan to test its capabilities with large animal bones-no processing of slice artefacts has been done in this case.
