What kVp/mAs do you use for this? How are you avoiding the artifacts seen from medical imaging? Curious, in school for CT in the medical field.

Lumafield does all the work; I just get the images :-) The data says 130 kV, 123µA. The whole scan took 21 hours: 1200 projections of 60 seconds each. I assume that they avoid artifacts by using a whole lot more radiation than medical imaging would permit.
