    Abstract: A system for imaging a component defining a negative space is provided comprising a component imaging assembly, a bolus insert, and an imaging device. The bolus insert is positionable in the component's negative space when the component is positioned within an imaging device imaging field to produce a component image. A method is provided comprising positioning a bolus insert within a component's negative space and scanning the component having the bolus insert to create an image of the component. A component imaging assembly is provided comprising a component including a first portion having a first thickness that is greater than a second thickness of a second portion; and a bolus insert positioned adjacent the second portion that has a bolus thickness substantially similar to a difference between the first and second thicknesses. The bolus insert has a bolus material density within fifteen percent (15%) of a component material density.

    Abstract: A method for determining porosity of a part is provided. The method includes: determining scan data of the part, the scan data including data of a plurality of sequential segments; determining a background model for the part, the scan data, or both; and determining a bulk porosity based on a difference between the scan data and the background model.

    Abstract: A method of producing a computer-generated image of a component part includes receiving scan data of the component part. The scan data includes a plurality of slices that change direction about a normal vector. The method further includes registering the scan data of the component part and transforming the scan data of the component part into a set of slices arranged in an x-y plane. Further, the method includes aligning the set of slices aligned along the axis along an axis in the x-y plane. In addition, the method includes adjusting the set of slices aligned along the axis using a background model for the component part, the scan data, or both. Thus, the method includes applying a directional filter to the set of slices aligned along the axis and generating the computer-generated image of the component part using the filtered set of slices aligned along the axis.
