BACKGROUND: Typical propagation-based X-ray phase contrast imaging (PB-PCI)
experiments using polyenergetic sources are tested in very ideal conditions: low-energy …

In the presented work, we investigated the potential capabilities of contrast improvement in
soft tissue achieved by x-ray phase contrast imaging. The Talbot-Lau interferometer method …

Propagation-based imaging is an X-ray phase-contrast method that does not require any
additional optical elements in the imaging system. Instead, phase-contrast effects are …

Propagation-based phase contrast imaging (PB-PCI) with an X-ray lab source is a powerful
technique to study low absorption samples, eg soft tissue or plastics, on the micrometer …

X-ray phase contrast imaging (PCI) has shown great potential for clinical investigation of soft
tissues. However, most of the existing X-ray PCI modalities require either a partially coherent …

X-ray phase contrast imaging is being investigated with the goal of improving the contrast of
soft tissue. Enhanced edges at material boundaries are characteristic of phase contrast …

Conventional X-ray imaging is based on the attenuation of X-rays and the technique
provides sufficient contrast when the difference between attenuation coefficients of …

In conventional radiography, the x-ray absorption due to an object is measured by projecting
a shadow of the object onto a detector. is method, which has traditionally been used to …

An unmet demand for high resolution tomographic imaging modalities providing enhanced
soft tissue contrast exists in a number of biomedical disciplines. X-ray phase contrast …

X-ray phase-contrast coupled to high-spatial resolution imaging systems provides a high
sensitivity for distinguishing soft tissue structures in small samples, thus being suited for X …
