This makes a great demonstration of the power of CT scanning to not only analyze the inside of any object but also provide great models for 3D printing and for comparing with other CAD files and making any kind of complex 3D measurement.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-white.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1507\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-white-1024x758.jpg\" alt=\"head white\" width=\"1024\" height=\"758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-white-1024x758.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-white-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-white.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-shot-with-cad.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1508\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-shot-with-cad-1024x758.jpg\" alt=\"head shot with cad\" width=\"1024\" height=\"758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-shot-with-cad-1024x758.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-shot-with-cad-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-shot-with-cad.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-of-the-CT-lab-cad-mesh.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1509\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-of-the-CT-lab-cad-mesh-1024x758.jpg\" alt=\"head of the CT lab cad mesh\" width=\"1024\" height=\"758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-of-the-CT-lab-cad-mesh-1024x758.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-of-the-CT-lab-cad-mesh-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/head-of-the-CT-lab-cad-mesh.jpg 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Video:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.sun.ac.za\/ctscanner\/files\/2015\/11\/Head-of-the-CT-lab.wmv\">Head of the CT lab<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this example, an indigenous South African chameleon species was scanned, which has three horns on its head making it quite unique.
