Internal Observations of Pills
Drug pills come in a variety of shapes and structures (including multilayered structures). Internal cracks formed during the manufacturing process can cause a pill to chip. Internal observations offer data to improve the shape, formulation, and manufacturing process of pills.
This is an example of internal observation of a pill by an X-ray CT system.
