Abstract

Grating-based X-ray phase-contrast (gbPC) is an X-ray phase-contrast imaging method involving optical gratings that typically employs the Talbot self-imaging e ect. X-ray phase contrast is known to provide significant benefits for biomedical imaging. To investigate these benefits for gbPC, a high-sensitivity gbPC micro-CT setup for small biological samples has been constructed. A gbPC projection measurement simultaneously retrieves the transmittance, di erential-phase and dark-field modalities of a sample. Phase stepping, the most common gbPC acquisition technique, involves several acquisitions at di erent lateral positions of one of the gratings. The three modalities can then be retrieved by least-squares- or FFT-based methods.
