X-ray CT enables three-dimensional visualization of internal structures; however, segmentation is often difficult for samples composed mainly of light elements because of their low absorption contrast. In this study, we investigated a segmentation method using integrated features from absorption-contrast and phase-contrast CT images. Segmentation was performed using a random forest classifier and evaluated using CT data acquired at the BL09W beamline of NanoTerasu. The results showed that phase-contrast features achieved higher classification performance than absorption-contrast features alone, while the integrated feature set provided the best performance. These findings suggest that absorption and phase information complement each other and improve segmentation accuracy.
