A coded-aperture technique allowing x-ray phase contrast imaging with conventional sources [PDF]
, 2007 Phase contrast imaging (PCI) solves the basic limitation of x-ray imaging, i.e., poor image contrast resulting from small absorption differences. Up to now, it has been mostly limited to synchrotron radiation facilities, due to the stringent requirements
