Abstract
X-ray radiography (XR) is a standard imaging tool in human osteology. Here we compare a series of human bone and tooth images taken using both X-ray and thermal neutron radiography (TNR) to identify the possible applications of the latter method. The TNR imaging is superior in case of bones contaminated with soil, and combined TNR and XR images may be used to find the areas with high proportion of organic fraction (i.e., collagen) in bone and dentin.
