Figure 8. Figures 7–9. (7) High-resolution transaxial CT scan of the scroll of an old and valuable Italian violin shows a linear region of high attenuation (arrow), consistent with glue repair. (8) High-resolution transaxial CT scan of the peg box of a valuable violin shows a linear area of high attenuation that represents glue repair (arrow). (9) High-resolution transaxial CT scan of the scroll of an old Italian violin demonstrates wormholes (arrowhead) and high-attenuation filler material (arrow) occupying a large volume of the scroll. Multiple wormholes several millimeters in diameter were visible on the surface of the scroll. An expert luthier had painted a wood grain pattern on the surface to conceal the filler material.
