由于非破坏性，X射线计算机层析成像可以研究蚯蚓洞穴系统随时间的发展。采用柱状实验方法，对内生蚯蚓--青色八叠世蚯蚓进行了研究。在14、21和92天后，对填满黄土的柱子(高30厘米，宽12厘米)进行扫描。随后对洞穴系统进行的三维分析揭示了洞穴的模式和洞穴的连续性程度。
Being non-destructive, X-ray computed tomography allows to study the development of earthworm burrow systems with time. Column experiments were carried out with the endogeic earthworm species Octolasium cyaneum. The columns (30 cm high, 12 cm wide), filled with loess soil, were scanned after 14, 21 and 92 days. The subsequent three-dimensional analysis of the burrow system revealed the pattern of burrowing and the degree of burrow continuity.
