The first CT scanners in the early 1970s already used iterative reconstruction algorithms;
however, lack of computational power prevented their clinical use. In fact, it took until 2009 …

The use of X-ray computed tomography (CT), exploiting both synchrotron and laboratory
sources, has grown significantly over the last decade, driven primarily by improvements in …

X-ray computer tomography (CT) is fast becoming an accepted tool within the materials
science community for the acquisition of 3D images. Here the authors review the current …

X-ray computed tomography (CT) is one of the most commonly used three-dimensional
medical imaging modalities today. It has been refined over several decades, with the most …

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 …

X-ray computed tomography (CT) is a nondestructive three-dimensional (3D) imaging
technique used for studying morphological properties of porous and nonporous materials. In …

The Talbot effect, also referred to as self-imaging or lensless imaging, is of the phenomena
manifested by a periodic repetition of planar field distributions in certain types of wave fields …

X-ray radiographic absorption imaging is an invaluable tool in medical diagnostics and
materials science. For biological tissue samples, polymers or fibre composites, however, the …

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 …

Imaging with visible light today uses numerous contrast mechanisms, including bright-and
dark-field contrast, phase-contrast schemes and confocal and fluorescence-based methods …
