Schematic diagram of the nodule stabalization system developed for maintaining the alignment between the imaging planes from multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), micro-CT, and the large image microscope array (LIMA) system. Shown are the components and imaging plane of the MDCT and micro-CT modalities (a), and the LIMA system (b). Photographs of the actual hardware is shown in (c), which show the detail of the mount arm and the support brackets.
