Specimen was stained in 0.3% PTA solution in 70% ethanol for 5 days. Scan was performed with a Skyscan 1172 at a voltage of 59kV and 167μΑ without filter for a full rotation of 360<sup>o</sup> . This specimen was scanned at the highest camera resolution with an exposure time of 1555ms. This scan was performed for testing contrast enhancing techniques for the application of micro-CT in marine biodiversity studies (<a href=\"http://www.microscopy-analysis.com/sites/default/files/2013_March_Faulwetter.pdf\">http://www.microscopy-analysis.com/sites/default/files/2013_March_Faulw…</a>).

Introduction
Welcome to the MicroCT data API. You can use the API to access microCT API endpoints, which can get information on various microCT data scans, species and metadata info related with the microCT dataset scans.
