Phase-contrast x-ray imaging (PCI) is an innovative method that is sensitive to the refraction
of the x-rays in matter. PCI is particularly adapted to visualize weakly absorbing details like …

Although early demonstration dates back to the mid-sixties, x-ray phase-contrast imaging
(XPCI) became hugely popular in the mid-90s, thanks to the advent of 3rd generation …

X-ray imaging is a standard tool for the non-destructive inspection of the internal structure of
samples. It finds application in a vast diversity of fields: medicine, biology, many engineering …

We present a simple x-ray phase imaging method that utilizes the sample-induced distortion
of a high contrast random intensity pattern to quantitatively retrieve the two-dimensional …

In the past few years, X-ray phase-contrast and dark-field imaging have evolved to be
invaluable tools for non-destructive sample visualisation, delivering information inaccessible …

This review provides a brief overview, albeit from a somewhat personal perspective, of the
evolution and key features of various hard X-ray phase-contrast imaging (PCI) methods of …

The size of the smallest detectable sample feature in an x-ray imaging system is usually
restricted by the spatial resolution of the system. This limitation can now be overcome using …

We analyze the spatial resolution of edge illumination X-ray phase-contrast imaging and its
dependence upon various experimental parameters such as source size, source-to-sample …

Phase-based approaches can revolutionize X-ray imaging and remove its main limitation:
poor image contrast arising from low attenuation differences. They exploit the unit decrement …

Wavefront sensors are usually based on measuring the wavefront derivatives. The most
commonly used approach to quantitatively reconstruct the wavefront uses discrete Fourier …
