The compressed folder contains two files:
1) NWA11115_CT_scan_TIFF_substack.tif
This is a TIFF image stack of the CT scan of the full NWA 11115 sample. Open in a program such as ImageJ (Rasband, W.S., ImageJ, U. S. National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, USA, https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/, 1997-2018).
2) NWA11115_CT_scan_60FPS_JPEG.avi
This is a video file of the CT scan of the same NWA 11115 sample. The TIFF stack was converted to a video file (.avi), compressed to JPEG quality, and at a rate of 60 frames per second. Open this file with software such as VLC (https://www.videolan.org/vlc/).
