Zoom (VOI-2) at 2.21um of the heart of donor UCL-ZCR-1770, scanned at ESRF on beamline BM18 using the HiP-CT imaging technique. Hierarchical Phase-Contrast Tomography (HiP-CT) is an X-ray technique that decouples field of view and resolution to image anywhere in the human body with cellular (micron) resolution. Imaging areas can be full organs at a resolution of 25 micron or zoomed regions in these organs with resolutions between 6 and 0.6 micron, one hundred times the resolution of medical CT.

本数据集为供体UCL-ZCR-1770心脏在2.21微米参数下的放大感兴趣体积（VOI-2）成像数据，于欧洲同步辐射装置（ESRF）的BM18号光束线上，采用分层相衬层析成像（Hierarchical Phase-Contrast Tomography，HiP-CT）技术完成扫描。分层相衬层析成像（HiP-CT）是一种可解耦视场与分辨率的X射线成像技术，能够实现人体任意部位的细胞级（微米级）成像。其成像可支持两种模式：以25微米的分辨率对完整器官进行扫描，或是对器官内的区域进行放大扫描，分辨率范围为6至0.6微米，分辨率为医用CT的百倍。
