Dedicated breast CT is being increasingly used for breast imaging. This technique provides
images with no compression, removal of tissue overlap, rapid acquisition, and available …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to review different x-ray phase-contrast breast
imaging techniques and their potential application in clinical settings. CONCLUSION. Phase …

The aim of the SYRMA-CT collaboration is to set-up the first clinical trial of phase-contrast
breast CT with synchrotron radiation (SR). In order to combine high image quality and low …

The possibility to perform high-sensitivity X-ray phase-contrast imaging with laboratory
grating-based phase-contrast computed tomography (gbPC-CT) setups is of great interest …

Breast cancer is a globally widespread disease whose detection has already been
significantly improved by the introduction of screening programs. Nevertheless …

The ability of biomedical imaging data to be of quantitative nature is getting increasingly
important with the ongoing developments in data science. In contrast to conventional …

A program devoted to performing the first in vivo synchrotron radiation (SR) breast computed
tomography (BCT) is ongoing at the Elettra facility. Using the high spatial coherence of SR …

In tissue engineering, non-invasive imaging of biomaterial scaffolds and tissues in living
systems is essential to longitudinal animal studies for assessments without interrupting the …

Uterine leiomyoma is the most common benign smooth muscle tumor in women pelvis,
originating from the myometrium. It is caused by a disorder of fibrosis, with a large …

Grating-based X-ray phase-contrast (gbPC) is an X-ray phase-contrast imaging method
involving optical gratings that typically employs the Talbot self-imaging effect. X-ray phase …
