Dear Anneke, Have you considered giving a photogrammetry a try before investing in a scanner? We are working on a module to do photogrammetry within in Slicer using all open source solutions. It is still sometime away, but within a few weeks (particularly after the Slicer's Project Week that will commence this week) we should have a somewhat usable prototype. You can keep an eye on the progress here: https://projectweek.na-mic.org/PW37_2022_Virtual/Projects/SlicerPhotoGram/
Here is an example of a mountain beaver skull with its texture enabled. http://smc-1.slicermorph.org:8000/public/task/00a80398-8e70-4fe6-84d8-5f0c9f55fb2b/3d/ This was about 20 minutes of image acquisition (using a turntable synced to camera shutter. We used about 200 images in total in three orientations. If you click on the camera that you can see the camera rings and orientations used. Reconstruction took about 4h using slicermorphcloud).. Like any other open source tool, this only will get better with more usage and user input.
