In this letter, we report results obtained with a recently developed approach for grating-
based x-ray dark-field imaging [F. Pfeiffer et al, Nat. Mater. 7, 134 (2008)]. Since the image …

Imaging with visible light today uses numerous contrast mechanisms, including bright-and
dark-field contrast, phase-contrast schemes and confocal and fluorescence-based methods …

Here we review our recent progress in the field of X-ray dark-field and phase-contrast
imaging using a grating interferometer. We describe the basic imaging principles of grating …

Over the recent years X-ray differential phase-contrast imaging was developed for the hard
X-ray regime as produced from laboratory X-ray sources. The technique uses a grating …

Hard X-ray dark-field and phase contrast imaging using grating interferometry have shown
great potential for medical and industrial applications. However, the wide spread …

X-ray imaging has conventionally relied upon attenuation to provide contrast. In recent
years, two complementary modalities have been added;(a) phase contrast, which can …

In this review article we describe the development of grating-based X-ray phase-contrast
imaging, with particular emphasis on potential biomedical applications of the technology …

We describe an x-ray differential phase-contrast imaging method based on two-dimensional
transmission gratings that are directly resolved by an x-ray camera. X-ray refraction and …

In grating-based x-ray phase sensitive imaging, dark-field contrast refers to the extinction of
the interference fringes due to small-angle scattering. For configurations where the sample …

Grating-based x-ray dark-field computed tomography is a functional method that utilizes the
scattering contrast mechanism to explore the inaccessible spatially resolved internal …
