Photon-counting spectral phase-contrast mammography [PDF]

Proc. SPIE 8313, Medical Imaging 2012, 83130F (2012), 2021
Phase-contrast imaging is an emerging technology that may increase the signal-difference-to-noise ratio in medical imaging. One of the most promising phase-contrast techniques is Talbot interferometry, which, combined with energy-sensitive photon-counting detectors, enables spectral differential phase-contrast mammography. We have evaluated a realistic
