Reliability is non-negotiable

Implants, prostheses, drug delivery devices, dental components or custom devices: in the medical sector, quality and reliability can never be compromised.

Thanks to CT validate without destroying

Industrial X-ray CT is a non-destructive testing (NDT) solution that lets you inspect the inside of medical devices without disassembly or destruction. It helps manufacturers detect internal defects, validate geometric conformity and qualify new products before they reach the market.

Why CT in the medical and dental industries?Strengthen quality while reducing risk

In the medical field, CT contributes to device qualification, process validation and continuous quality improvement. Every device, often unique or custom-made for a patient, must be validated with the same rigor as a mass-produced part.

  • Detect defects before market release by identifying cracks, porosity, inclusions and assembly defects early.
  • Reduce destructive testing while getting a complete view of the internal and external structures of devices.
  • Qualify new materials and processes before industrialization, whether polymers, titanium, ceramics or additive manufacturing.
  • Speed up failure analysis with fast defect localization, with no disassembly or complex sample preparation.
  • Validate custom devices and patient-specific implants with automatic CAD comparison and complete non-contact measurements.
  • Improve traceability and regulatory compliance with 3D data usable by quality, R&D and regulatory teams.

Unlike a coordinate measuring machine, whose probing path has to be re-validated for every new part, CT does not rely on physical contact. This is a decisive advantage given the diversity of medical devices.

Three ways CT supports your medical and dental device quality

metrology_nemera_medical_tomography_RX_solutions_CT

Validate the most critical medical devices


Implants, implantable devices, pharmaceutical components or drug delivery systems must meet strict quality and reliability requirements before reaching the market.

  • detect porosity, cracks, inclusions and assembly defects before use;
  • automatically compare a device to its CAD model;
  • measure internal and external geometries in a single scan;
  • generate data usable for product qualification and validation.

Accelerate the transition to digital dentistry


CT lets you quickly turn a physical impression into a digital model and inspect complex geometries that conventional methods can’t measure.

  • create usable 3D models without plaster casts;
  • digitize complex internal and external shapes;
  • make it easier to design and validate custom devices;
  • improve the traceability and reproducibility of digital workflows.

Inspect all materials, without contact or destruction


From soft membranes to titanium or ceramic implants, CT delivers reliable data regardless of geometry or material.

  • inspect delicate components without damaging them;
  • analyze polymers as well as highly absorbing materials;
  • characterize the internal structures of complex implants;
  • preserve the integrity of the device after inspection.

Medical and dental industry FAQ

Can an implant be inspected without being destroyed?
Yes. CT lets you inspect an implant’s internal and external structures with no cutting or special preparation, leaving the device intact after inspection.
Why use CT rather than a conventional metrology machine?
Unlike contact methods, CT gives simultaneous access to internal and external geometries, even on complex or porous structures.
Can an additively manufactured implant be inspected?
Yes. CT is particularly well suited to validating 3D-printed implants thanks to porosity detection, analysis of porous structures and CAD comparison.
Which materials can be analyzed?
RX Solutions CT systems can inspect medical polymers as well as titanium implants, technical ceramics and biomaterials.
Can a 3D model be generated directly from a scan?
Yes. CT data can be used to generate 3D models, perform metrology or compare against the original CAD.
