X-Ray Tomography of Gaster Amulet 34

Recently, the Collection Care and Imaging teams from the University of Manchester Special Collections collaborated with NXCT, The National X-ray Computed Tomography centre based at The University of Manchester. For the first time, objects from the John Rylands collections were imaged using state of the art X-ray scanning facilities, in an attempt to reveal what’s hidden inside.
