Abstract

X-ray phase-contrast methods for imaging and tomography have considerable advantages over conventional absorption contrast. They enable excellent imaging contrast for both high- and low-density materials within the same sample and offer additional imaging modes which can highlight low-contrast boundaries, subtle density gradients, and fine-scale texture. Phase-contrast methods encompass a family of techniques implemented both in the laboratory and at synchrotron sources which utilize a range of tools to make visible the phase shift imposed on an X-ray beam by the sample. This chapter describes the main phase-contrast techniques used, their particular strengths, and a range of applications for each, together with some of the mathematical methods used in the analysis of phase-contrast data.
