CAT Scans (Computerized Axial Tomography) of Deep Sea Fish: - Orange Roughy - Icefish (Smoothed and sharp images) - Blue Grenadier - Oreo Dories (Spiky, Smooth and Warty) - Warehou. All images were recorded at the Royal Hobart Hospital between 2000 and 2007. The images are in black and white, with mm resolution, from which it is possible to extract density and size measurements. The images are stored in the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) format. Added 5th June 2014: zipped datasets (CT-Scan data files of Orange Roughy) have been made publicly available. To view the datasets, download and unzip the files, then copy all contents on a CD, to view the data, use the viewer application PCVCDVW.EXE from the CD in the subdirectory CDVIEWER. Note that the viewer application only runs from a CD.
