Hello all,
	I am working in the area of using computer vision to inspect and grade
grain. We are interested in adding x-ray capability to our laboratory so I would 
appreciate the advice of anyone with experience with x-ray imaging. 

	-Is anyone out there using or attempted to use x-rays to look at seeds
 		(ie. hidden insects, cracks, germination, etc)?

	-Would it be possible to use CT to obtain a cross-section of a bulk of grain, 
		say a cylinder the diameter of a coke can? 

	-Would it be possible to obtain a CT scan of a single kernel, approximately
		6 mm long x 2 mm in dia? 

Please email me with any ideas, comments, or advice you may have.
Thanks
-JLH
