You know what medical CT is, but what about industrial CT? 🤔Learn how industrial CT works, its history, and the ways it can make manufacturing better and more efficient for engineers. 📈 Discover industrial CT here 💡: lumafield.com/article/what-i…

@dxgl_org @ridgewallet We just scanned this. The edge alignment isn't the quality we'd expect for a battery of this price point, but the anode overhang is acceptable (within the 0.5mm industry standard). @MKBHD what did you think of the battery pack? We'd love to CT scan other things for you!

@ridgewallet Has @lumafield done any tests on this power bank to see if it's safe?

Fit 10,000mAh in the palm of your hand. One thing to pack, five ways to power.

What's inside the Oura Ring 4? A very small curved battery sophisticated sensors that help deliver 24/7 health data. See the full internal breakdown in the latest Scan of the Month: hubs.ly/Q043K81f0

Inside the Oura Ring 4: optical sensors, a curved battery, antenna, and a flex PCB, all wrapped around a finger to deliver detailed health data. Check out Scan of the Month for more info on this Oura Ring by following the link: hubs.ly/Q043K81f0

This entire hearing aid fits behind your ear. Inside: microphones, a processor, wireless radio, and a micro-speaker working together to isolate speech from background noise. Scroll through the scans yourself by following the link: hubs.ly/Q043K81f0

This Jabra over-the-ear hearing aid packs a lot into a housing barely larger than a paperclip. Inside are components that capture environmental sound, process it digitally, and separate speech from background noise. Scroll through this month’s Scan of the Month: hubs.ly/Q043K81f0

Health wearables have become the most intimate technology most of us own, following us into the shower and bed at night while capturing a constant stream of data. Since the Apple Watch brought biometric tracking into everyday life, devices like the @ouraring, @dexcom G7 glucose monitor, @myomnipod on-body injector, and @jabraenhance hearing aids have carried that shift forward, blending consumer design with clinical precision. Our latest Scan of the Month looks inside each to see how the engineering itself achieves that balance. Explore the scans and see how the future of healthcare is being built, one wearable at a time ⬇️ hubs.ly/Q043Knbm0

Some medications can only be stored in glass ampules, and opening one can create small glass shards. A filter needle catches those fragments before the needle is switched and the medication is injected. Follow this link to learn more about medical devices: hubs.ly/Q043vNtT0

Roses are red, violets are blue, here are some CT scans for you. Happy Valentine’s Day. 🌹

A filter needle is an essential tool when drawing medication from a glass ampule. Opening an ampule can create tiny glass shards invisible to the naked eye, but the 5-micron filter prevents the debris from entering the syringe. Go to this link to learn more about medical devices: hubs.ly/Q04173qy0

Bad Bunny's excellent halftime show came with a surprise for the crowd: this @pixmob LED Badge that lit up during the performance. See how thousands of these illuminated Levi's Stadium on Sunday. 🏈

This on-body injector delivers medications like insulin and post-chemotherapy drugs using slow, controlled dosing. Timed electronics and mechanical indexing replace a motor, keeping the mechanism simple, low-power, and compact. Follow the link to learn more about medical devices like this: hubs.ly/Q04173qy0

This on-body injector delivers medications like insulin and post-chemotherapy drugs using slow, controlled dosing. Instead of a motor, it relies on timed electronics and clever mechanics to stay simple, low-power, and compact. Learn more about medical devices like this here: hubs.ly/Q04173qy0

This is a PillCam, a tiny camera system the size of a vitamin that can image the GI tract when endoscopies or colonoscopies come back inconclusive. Swipe through to see inside this device that sees inside you. Head to the link to learn more about medical devices like this: hubs.ly/Q04173qy0

Endoscopy and colonoscopy aren’t the only options for imaging the GI tract. The PillCam is a camera the size of a vitamin pill and has enough power to take photos of any part of the digestive system. Check out the link to learn more about medical devices like this: hubs.ly/Q04173qy0

Did you know the CIA invented the battery inside most pacemakers? The lithium iodide battery was intended for satellites and spy equipment, but found its way into the heart of pacemakers after it was declassified. This replaced the zinc-magnesium battery increasing the lifespan from a couple of years to up to a decade. 📈

@repkord @iFixit @BondtechAB @Prusa3D @E3DOnline @3D_Musketeers What a great looking scan!

Results from the overnight CT scan on the @lumafield by our homies at @iFixit . Saw through that brass, no problem! Fantastic view of the high flow geometry of the @BondtechAB CHT nozzle and how it does its magic!

Cool new feature coming to @lumafield X-ray CT scanners: helical scanning! Our scanners capture X-ray images from different angles, then reconstruct them into a 3D model. By gradually lifting the object we're scanning as it rotates, we can now scan taller parts and achieve much higher resolution on long, thin parts.

Lumafield is back on @testedcom with Adam Savage! Andreas Bastian and Alex Hao sit down with Adam to unpack our Battery Report, uncovering the real risks of low-cost and counterfeit batteries, and why rigorous quality control matters more than ever for manufacturers.

You're in for a treat, but only if you can get that lid off. Talenti gelato is notorious for being tough to open, so we scanned a few new and opened containers to see if industrial CT could tell us why. Read the full scoop here: hubs.ly/Q03-V9B20 🍨

All batteries are not created equally. As many as 8% of today’s lithium-ion batteries have a dangerous defect, and it’s more important than ever to detect such issues through CT scanning. According to @lumafield . Check out our conversation with Technical Product Manager Alex Hao at CES.
