This chapter reviews the main categories of methods that have been developed for
preclinical and clinical imaging applications. The methods covered here are all based on …

Dark-field imaging is a scattering-based X-ray imaging method that can be performed with
laboratory X-ray tubes. The possibility to obtain information about unresolvable structures …

Objectives Microcalcifications are an important feature in the diagnosis of breast cancer,
especially in the early stages. In this paper, a CT-based method is proposed to potentially …

In this study, we propose to remove Moiré image artifact induced by system instabilities in
grating-based x-ray interferometry imaging using convolutional neural network (CNN) …

Microscopy techniques using visible photons, x-rays, neutrons, and electrons have made
remarkable impact in many scientific disciplines. The microscopic data can often be …

Phase contrast computed tomography (PCCT) offers excellent imaging contrast on soft
tissue while it generate absorption, phase and dark-field contrast tomographic images. It has …

Grating interferometry X-ray differential phase contrast imaging (GI-XDPCI) has provided
enhanced imaging contrast and attracted more and more interests. Currently the low …

Purpose In grating‐based x‐ray multi‐contrast imaging, signals of three contrast
mechanisms‐absorption contrast, differential phase contrast (DPC), and dark‐field contrast …

Background To obtain phase-contrast X-ray images, single-grid imaging systems are
effective, but Moire artifacts remain a significant issue. The solution for removing Moire …

X-ray phase-contrast imaging (XPCI) can dramatically improve soft tissue contrast in X-ray
medical imaging. Despite worldwide efforts to develop novel XPCI systems, a numerical …
