# Laboratory tomography test

## You wish to carry out a tomography test in the laboratory

### What is tomography?

First of all, tomography is a technique for analysing and testing materials by means of radiation/matter interaction. It allows the construction of 3D images of the test object. Performing a tomography test in the laboratory does not therefore imply the destruction of the sample used.

### Why carry out a tomography test?

The non-destructive nature of tomography makes tomography testing particularly suitable for certain industrial fields such as art, luxury goods or for manufacturers of bulky objects.

X-ray tomography allows the analysis of material composition and the monitoring of its evolution in relation to external constraints.
