Post Subject: RE: Difference b/w S-Scan & C-Scan
Tom is correct - this is defined on our web site. However, here are two other definitions to get you started:
C-scan (from EN-1330-4): Image of the results of an ultrasonic examination showing a cross-section of the test object parallel to the scanning surface.
S-scan: 1. A 2D view of all A-scans from a specific set of elements corrected for delay and refracted angle. The S-scan image typically uses one axis (X or Y) to represent the time, the other (Y or X) represents the sequences, and the colour scale represents the amplitude.
You may find easier definitions on our web site.
