Abstract: X-ray computed tomography (CT) experiments performed at synchrotron radiation facilities require adequate computing and storage resources due to the large amount of acquired and reconstructed data produced. To satisfy the heterogeneous needs of beamline users, flexible solutions are also required. Moreover, the growing demand of quantitative image analysis impose an easy integration between the CT reconstruction process and the subsequent feature extraction step. This paper presents some of the software solutions adopted by the SYRMEP beamline of the Italian synchrotron radiation facility Elettra. By using the enhanced version of the reconstruction software here presented as well as data reduction and data analysis tools, beamline users can easily implement an integrated and comprehensive approach to the digital image processing and image analysis required by a tomography-oriented scientific workflow.
