That’s a lot of effort being put into this website (not to speak of the scans themselves).

Does anyone know how they monetize this page? Or is it just a hobby project?

There's a book from 25+ years ago on the design of cardboard boxes which goes to similar levels of obsessive detail. Part Art college, design school, industrial design and part coffee table book.

Cardboard, it's origami for industry: sheet form, now optimise assembly, cost and structural integrity alongside ease of production...

I wish I could remember. My mum used to bring these things home from the art college library on long loan. It was by an industry professional, on the processes to design efficient boxes, packing, cardboard constructions. I can't find it online.

It's weird that CT scans cost hundreds (thousands?) of dollars when used in medicine but at the airport everyone's baggage is routinely scanned for approx. $free.

Is the hardware and software needed for CT scans really that expensive or not?
