The use of a non-destructive technique, such as the propagation-based X-ray phase
contrast radiography (PBR) can be an innovative method for automatic parasitism analysis …

Enhanced contrast X-ray imaging is achieved by exploiting the real part of the refraction
index, which is responsible for the phase shifts, in addition to the imaginary part, which is …

The parasitoid wasp Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) has been
used for the biological control of fruit fly larvae in many countries. Due to the large scale of …

Purpose In the context of synchrotron microtomography using propagation-based phase-
contrast imaging (XSPCT), we evaluated the performance of semiautomatic and automatic …

Speckle-based X-ray imaging (SBI) is a phase-contrast method developed at and for highly
coherent X-ray sources, such as synchrotrons, to increase the contrast of weakly absorbing …

Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disease in which the production of thick sticky mucus
compromises the mucociliary transit (MCT) system and causes obstruction of the conducting …

X-ray computed tomography is becoming a common technique for the structural analysis of
samples of cultural relevance, providing luthiers, art historians, conservators and restorators …

Three-dimensional X-ray imaging of living specimens is challenging due to the limited
resolution of conventional absorption contrast X-ray imaging and potential irradiation …

Gastrointestinal foreign bodies (GI-FBs) occur when pets consume non-digestible items that
do not readily pass through the stomach or intestines. While some GI-FBs pass through …

Ring artifacts are undesirable and complicate the analysis and interpretation of
microstructures in synchrotron X-ray microtomography. Here, we propose a new method to …
