The three-dimensional structure of monolithic networks such as ceramic sponges and their geometrical dimensions are part of the fundamentals necessary for investigation in most possible applications in chemical engineering. A volume imaging method must be applied to determine this structure and to measure features such as the specific surface area and the pore diameter. Magnetic Resonance Imaging was chosen for such measurements in this study. The analysis of volume images is performed with various methods based on different principles, which are compared with each other as well as with data generated by conventional techniques and from literature models.
