Background luminescence in x-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) imaging. [PDF]
Appl Opt, 2019 X-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) is an emerging hybrid imaging modality. It has been recently reported that materials such as water, tissue, or even air can generate optical photons upon x-ray irradiation, which can increase the noises in measurements of XLCT.

X-ray luminescence imaging for small animals. [PDF]
Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng, 2020 X-ray luminescence imaging emerged for about a decade and combines both the high spatial resolution of x-ray imaging with the high measurement sensitivity of optical imaging, which could result in a great molecular imaging tool for small animals. So far, there are two types of x-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) imaging.

Contrast agents for x-ray luminescence computed tomography. [PDF]
Appl Opt, 2021 Imaging probes are an important consideration for any type of contrast agent-based imaging method. X-ray luminescence imaging (XLI) and x-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) are both contrast agent-based imaging methods that employ x-ray excitable scintillating imaging probes that emit light to be measured for optical ...

Sensitivity study of x-ray luminescence computed tomography. [PDF]
Appl Opt, 2017 X-ray luminescence computed tomography (XLCT) is a hybrid molecular imaging modality that combines the merits of both x-ray imaging (high resolution) and optical imaging (high sensitivity). In this study, we have evaluated the sensitivity of XLCT with phantom experiments by scanning targets of different phosphor concentrations at different depths.
