Exploring x-ray phase tomography with synchrotron radiation

Tuesday, October 21, 2014 - 12:30 in Physics & Chemistry

X-ray phase tomography is an imaging technique that uses penetrating X-rays to create volumetric views through "slices" or sections of soft biological tissues, such as tumors, and it offers strongly enhanced contrast compared to conventional CT scans. Yet scientists still do not know which X-ray phase tomography methods are best suited to yield optimized results for a wide variety of conditions.
