Non-destructive testing: what is it and why use it?
Why is CT Scanning considered a “non-destructive testing” method? What is “non-destructive”? CT Scanning is considered a non-destructive inspection technique because it allows for the visualization of the internal structure of an object without causing any physical damage to the object itself. In non-destructive testing (NDT), the goal is to examine and evaluate the integrity,…
