X-Ray

X-ray, or X-radiation, is a form of electromagnetic radiation that can pass through many materials that are opaque to light. They can be used to take images of the inside of the human body.

Design of the human-scale dark-field CT system. (A) Layout of the Talbot–Lau interferometer integrated into a conventional medical CT system. Bent gratings in an inverse geometry allow positioning of G0 and G1 close to the source. A large G2 is positioned close to the detector. Contrast formation is illustrated in SI Appendix, Fig. S1. (B) CT gantry equipped with a Talbot–Lau interferometer. The large G2 covering the detector is visible, while the G0 and G1 fixture is concealed by the collimator box. A huma
