Pulmonary research is challenging because of the lack of visualization of lung airspace by
commonly used imaging modalities. Cyclic breathing and motion artifacts due to …

Physiological studies in small animals can be complicated, but the complexity is increased
dramatically when performing live‐animal synchrotron X‐ray imaging studies. Our group has …

The high flux and coherence produced at long synchrotron beamlines makes them well
suited to performing phase-contrast X-ray imaging of the airways and lungs of live small …

Small-animal physiology studies are typically complicated, but the level of complexity is
greatly increased when performing live-animal X-ray imaging studies at synchrotron and …

Bright synchrotron x-ray sources enable imaging with short exposure times, and hence in a
high-speed image sequence. These x-ray movies can capture not only sample structure, but …

Lung diseases are a major burden of public health especially in developed countries and
therefore continue to be an active interest in preclinical and clinical research. Due to the …

Synchrotron X-ray sources have unique capabilities for in vivo imaging of the lungs in small
animals. The moving, breathing lungs can be captured in detail due to the high brightness …

Synchrotron X-rays can be used to obtain highly detailed images of parts of the lung.
However, micro-motion artifacts induced by such as cardiac motion impede quantitative …

The interest in using small animal models of human disease has produced a need to design
a CT system at a microscopic level comparable to that achievable in a clinical CT in human …

Small animal physiology studies are often complicated, but the level of complexity is greatly
increased when performing live-animal X-ray imaging studies at synchrotron radiation …
