Signal-to-noise and spatial resolution in in-line imaging. 2. Phase-contrast tomography
T. E. Gureyev, D. M. Paganin, K. M. Pavlov +2
In the first part of this paper, quantitative aspects of propagation-based phase-contrast imaging (PBI) were investigated using theoretical and numerical approaches, as well as exp…
High-energy X-ray phase-contrast CT of an adult human chest phantom
Jannis N. Ahlers, Lorenzo D'Amico, Henriette Bast +15
Propagation-based phase-contrast X-ray imaging is a promising technique for in~vivo medical imaging, offering lower radiation doses than traditional attenuation-based imaging. Prev…
Towards order of magnitude X-ray dose reduction in breast cancer imaging using phase contrast and deep denoising
Ashkan Pakzad, Robert Turnbull, Simon J. Mutch +14
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed human cancer in the United States at present. Early detection is crucial for its successful treatment. X-ray mammography and digital…
