Towards synchrotron phase-contrast lung imaging in patients: a proof-of-concept study on porcine lungs in a human-scale chest phantom
This proof-of-concept study on a human-scale chest phantom and fresh porcine lungs with artificial pulmonary nodules demonstrates that local-area in-line free propagation phase-contrast synchrotron tomography of fresh porcine lungs can be performed with an acceptable X-ray dose that would allow for...

| Zusammenfassung: | This proof-of-concept study on a human-scale chest phantom and fresh porcine lungs with artificial pulmonary nodules demonstrates that local-area in-line free propagation phase-contrast synchrotron tomography of fresh porcine lungs can be performed with an acceptable X-ray dose that would allow for future application in patients while providing spatial-resolution magnitudes higher than currently available clinical computed tomography scanners. |
