Micro Computer Tomography for medical device and pharmaceutical packaging analysis

• Principle of Micro Computer Tomography and overview of pharmaceutical applications.
• Verification and measurements of medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging.
• Defect detection (e.g. complaints) performed by micro CT in a non-destructive way.

Biomedical device and medicine product manufacturing are long processes facing global competition. As technology evolves with time, the level of quality, safety and reliability increases simultaneously. Micro Computer Tomography (Micro CT) is a tool allowing a deep investigation of products: it can contribute to quality improvement. This article presents the numerous applications of Micro CT for medical device and pharmaceutical packaging analysis. The samples investigated confirmed CT suitability for verification of integrity, measurements and defect detections in a non-destructive manner.
