Purpose and goal
The goal of XamFlow has been to develop a system that manages the entire workflow of 3-D scanning studies in general with initial focus on micro-CT examinations. The final system is capable of handling large studies with many scanned samples and complex workflows that include both interactive and automated tasks. The system is also capable of handling very large images efficiently. New analysis and visualization methods have also been developed and integrated.
Expected results and effects
The XamFlow system simplifies and significantly increases the effectiveness of the full micro-CT examination. The system keeps track of all parameters for both the measurement and image analysis, and manages all generated results that can be analyzed and presented in the system. This adds a great value to anyone who carries out both large and small studies. In 2017, a commercial product will be completed which will be available to both new and existing micro-CT systems.
Planned approach and implementation
XamFlow system was developed jointly by 6 teams in Sweden and Switzerland, of which 4 are companies and 2 universities. Three of the teams have developed the core (Lucid, ImaComp, INS) and the others special modules: CT scanning (Scanco), structural analysis (KTH), web application (Capenta). We have successfully built up the system incrementally through several iterations with regular meetings between the teams. Several releases of the system have been produced during the project.
