Gel phantom data for dynamic X-ray tomography

Abstract

This is the documentation for dynamic X-ray tomography measurements of a gel phantom diffused with potassium iodide contrast agent. The measured data and additional materials are available at http://www.fips.fi/dataset.php and Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3696817) for open use by the scientific community, as long as the data and this documentation at arXiv are appropriately referenced. The files contain: (1) 17 consecutive measurements of the gel phantom organized into sinograms at two different resolutions (binning levels) and some additional metadata which can be used to create matrix-free forward operators and filtered back-projection reconstructions; (2) the first measurement using a greater number of projections, and an additional measurement of an 18th time step using very dense angular sampling, for example to be used for reference reconstructions; (3) short example codes to showcase how the data could be used to test and validate reconstruction algorithms.Comment: Actual data can be found at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.369681
