The three dimensional grain mapping technique for polycrystalline material, which is called X-ray diffraction contrast tomography (DCT) has proposed. In the present study, the measurement of DCT was conducted in SPring-8, which is the brightest synchrotron radiation facility in Japan, and the condition of measurement and data procedure are discussed. Developed technique was applied to aluminium alloy and stainless steel. The shape and location of grain could be determined by the developed three-dimensional mapping technique using the apparatus in a bending beam line of SPring-8. To evaluate plastic deformation, the grain orientation spreads of individual grains were measured. The grain orientation spread is caused by the mosaicity, which relates to the dislocation structure in a grain. The grain orientation spread was found to increase with increasing plastic strain. Fatigue damage also could be evaluated by the grain orientation spread in the DCT measurement.
