Advances in X-Ray Imaging Workshop June 2025

The 8th Annual Workshop on Advances in X-ray imaging took place on 24 June 2025, at Harwell, Oxfordshire and was a great success. This is a collaboration between The University of òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ at , and the with the aim of bringing together scientists from different fields to discuss developments and applications of a variety of X-Ray imaging and complementary techniques, and to build international collaborations.

It was fantastic to host scientists from all over the country, The Universities of òòò½ÎÑÊÓÆµ, Oxford, Portsmouth, Southampton, Warwick, Glasgow, UCL, ICL etc) and from Denmark, France, Islamabad, Morocco, Pakistan, as well as many of our Harewell colleagues and collaborators from DLS, STFC, CLF, RFI, and industry.

25EC3564 Workshop on Advances in X-Ray Imagin

Workshop topics of conversation

A good part of the workshop was dedicated to techniques development and multimodal imaging. Our excellent speakers presented a variety of complementary imaging techniques such as neutron and X-ray tomography applied to complex coupling in porous media, bespoke multimodal X-ray imaging applied to clinical studies and materials science, cryo-EM tomography combined with soft X-ray tomography applied to Bt bacteria, colour imaging applications in materials science and biomaterials using cutting-edge hyperspectral detectors, and recent developments in natural and cultural heritage at ESRF.

New exciting developments for pre- and post-imaging were also highlighted during the workshop such as the Core Imaging Library (CIL) for the reconstruction of challenging datasets which can be used in conjunction with open-source X-ray simulation software such as g-VXR, opening the door to digital twinning of XCT. A nice example of visualisation and analysis of 4D datasets using Digital Volume Correlation was also illustrated to understand and predict the emergence of OA.
