The page mentions it's a CT scan. But from the looks of it, not the kind one would find in a hospital meant for humans. Probably something for research/industrial applications on much smaller samples, the materials science people at my university have one. They spit out a pretty usable voxel format (DICOM).

DICOM is also the format used at hospitals for medical images. At least in radiotherapy.

The machines are called "micro CT"

My first thought was neutron radiography, but this makes more sense. Neutron X-ray hybrid scanning can capture some amazing images.
