X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful technique used to determine the molecular structure of
biological tissues. In breast tissues for example, the scattering signatures of dense …

Background: Using hair samples to analyze the trace element concentrations is of interest
among many researchers. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are the …

An energy dispersive X-ray microdiffractometer with capillary optics has been developed for
characterizing breast cancer. The employment of low divergence capillary optics helps to …

The present study was implemented using two X-ray detection systems; a monochromatic X-
ray system for X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Angular Dispersive X-ray Diffraction (ADXRD) …

Purpose: Develop a method to subtract fat tissue contributions to wide‐angle x‐ray scatter
(WAXS) signals of breast biopsies in order to estimate the differential linear scattering …

The first step that is required to extract the correct information from a two-dimensional (2D)
diffraction signature is to remove the background accurately. However, direct background …

Coherent scatter x-ray imaging systems are sensitive to material structure and chemical
composition, and generate images with contrast superior to conventional transmission x-ray …

Wide-angle x-ray scatter (WAXS) could potentially be used to diagnose ductal carcinoma in
situ (DCIS) in breast biopsies. The regions of interest were assumed to consist of …

X-ray diffraction imaging is a powerful noninvasive technique to identify or characterize
different materials. Compared to traditional techniques using X-ray transmission, it allows to …
