Standard radiography and Volume RAD tomosynthesis were undertaken using a GE Discovery XR656 machine by Carol Kittredge. Computed tomography (CT) was produced using a Phillips Ingenuity CT and the resulting files were processed by Heidi Streeter prior to them coming to the Shelburne Museum. Shelburne Museum conservator Nancie Ravenel viewed and further processed the resulting DICOM files initially using Adobe Photoshop and then OsiriX (32 bit) to produce the jpeg images used for this site. Processing included re-sizing and re-orienting images and adjusting brightness to highlight features that would have been difficult to see otherwise. Videos and 2D orthogonal multi-planar reconstructions of the CT stacks were also produced using OsiriX Lite. Metadata regarding the specific objects imaged was also enhanced for image preservation purposes.
