Welcome

Welcome to ICTMS 2019

ICTMS 2019 - International Conference on Tomography of Materials & Structures
22 - 26 July 2019

The fourth biennial conference of IntACT (Int. Assoc. of Computed Tomography), ICTMS 2019, will bring together scientists from universities, research organisations, and industry, to discuss 3D/4D tomographic imaging and analysis methods for (non-clinical) studies of materials and structures as well as their evolution.

Australia has a strong tomography community with a long commitment to GeoX and ICTMS, with research groups active in theory, algorithms and hardware . Australian developments include lab-based micro and ultra-micro CTs (some commercialised e.g. Gatan XuM, FEI Heliscan); imaging and XRF beamlines at the Australian Synchrotron (AS), a recently commissioned neutron imaging facility, high-end TEM systems, along with numerous applications groups with sophisticated 3D analysis techniques. We hope that hosting the next ICTMS in Australia will enhance involvement in ICTMS (and intACT in general) by this community in future, and encourage increased involvement from the Asia-Pacific region simply by being more accessible. It is great timing for AS which has received a new round of funding and is expected to announce shortly the addition of a micro-CT beamline that will be nearing completion by ICTMS 2019.
