Collaborators from @KTHuniversity recently published a paper on phase-contrast virtual chest radiography. In this study, #XCAT phantoms were used to generate realistic virtual radiographs to show the potential benefit of phase-contrast chest radiography. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Thank you @xrayshaker for your great presentation at the RSL yesterday: X-ray fluorescence and phase contrast can be used as contrast mechanims towards more sensitive X-ray imaging.
