Review of X-ray phase contrast imaging techniques and propagation based imaging using a Benchtop Microfocal Source

Currently, the basis for standard clinical X-ray radiography is absorption, tracking attenuation of radiation when X-ray beams pass through a particular part of the body. The fundamental interaction processes are dependent on variations in the atomic number and density of the target medium; consequ...
