Abstract:
A system and related method for X-ray phase contrast imaging. A signal model is fitted to interferometric measurment data. The fitting operation yields a Compton cross section and a photo-electric image. A pro-portionality between the Compton cross section and electron-density is used to achieve a reduction of the number of fitting variables. The Compton image may be taken, up to a constant, as a phase contrast images.
