Synchrotron Radiation Phase CT with X-ray Talbot Interferometer

Abstract

X-ray Talbot interferometry is an approach for X-ray phase CT, and because it does not use crystals, its applications are expanding to various research purposes, such as high-resolution measurements, quantitative measurements, and even dynamic measurements. This article introduces examples of X-ray phase CT measurements obtained using an X-ray Talbot interferometer at SPring-8, focusing on applications to biomedical samples, and looks ahead to the future.
