  text: <jats:p>The structural resolution describes the ability of a measuring device
    to detect small structures on the surface of a component or test specimen by means
    of a quantitative value. However, the structural resolution in the computer tomograph
    depends on the object and must therefore be determined separately for each measurement
    task. The previous approaches to structural resolution determination are only
    related to test specimens. In this paper, less discrete approaches based on a
    circular pattern are presented, which can be integrated into the measured component.
    A voxel-based methodology as well as two surface-based methodologies are described.
    The investigation results regarding the effect of the component position on the
    structural resolution are obtained on the basis of real CT measurements. A comparison
    is also completed with the well-known hourglass method. The results show that
    the resolution depends on the object being measured, with similar values being
    obtained for the same object using different methods.</jats:p>
