Ventilation and particle deposition is directly linked to the 3D− structure of the lung acinus.
Until now the investigation of the 3D− structure of an entire acinus was either limited by the …

Technological advancements in X-ray imaging using bright and coherent synchrotron
sources now allows the decoupling of sample size and resolution while maintaining high …

We present a framework that combines evolutionary optimisation, soft tissue modelling and
ray tracing on GPU to simultaneously compute the respiratory motion and X-ray imaging in …

A micro-CT system was developed using a 36M-pixel digital single-lens reflex camera as a
cost-effective mode for large human lung specimen imaging. Scientific grade cameras used …

In the present study, the feasibility of applying synchrotron radiation for the detection of lung
cancers was investigated. Lung cancer tissues grown in mice over different periods were …

Respiratory X-ray imaging enhanced by phase contrast has shown improved airway
visualization in animal models. Limitations in current X-ray technology have nevertheless …

Imaging the different scales of biological tissue is essential for understanding healthy organ
behavior and pathophysiological changes. X-ray micro-tomography using both laboratory …

The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of a novel respiration-gated spiral
synchrotron radiation computed tomography (SRCT) technique for direct quantification of …

In K-edge subtraction (KES) imaging with synchrotron radiation computed tomography
(SRCT), two images are taken simultaneously using energies above and below the K …

Background Early detection of lung cancer is known to improve the chances of successful
treatment. However, lungs are soft tissues with complex three-dimensional configuration …
