The Palaeoanthropology Laboratory at the University of Cambridge houses a Bruker SkyScan 1273 microCT scanner, a high-capacity X-ray imaging system for non-destructive three-dimensional imaging of internal structures. The facility supports research across archaeology, palaeoanthropology, biology, geology, and related disciplines, while also being available for industrial and engineering applications requiring high-resolution internal inspection and analysis. Capable of scanning a wide range of specimen sizes and materials, the system produces detailed volumetric datasets for quantitative analysis, virtual reconstruction, quality control, and digital preservation. The facility provides scanning, reconstruction, and data-processing support for both academic and external users.
