  2. Spectral imaging (radiography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_imaging_(radiography)

    Spectral imaging is an umbrella term for energy-resolved X-ray imaging in medicine. [1] The technique makes use of the energy dependence of X-ray attenuation to either increase the contrast-to-noise ratio, or to provide quantitative image data and reduce image artefacts by so-called material decomposition.

  3. X-ray microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_microscope

    An X-ray microscopy image of a living 10-days-old canola plant [1]. An X-ray microscope uses electromagnetic radiation in the X-ray band to produce magnified images of objects. . Since X-rays penetrate most objects, there is no need to specially prepare them for X-ray microscopy observatio

  4. Radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiography

    Similar techniques are used in airport security, (where "body scanners" generally use backscatter X-ray). To create an image in conventional radiography, a beam of X-rays is produced by an X-ray generator and it is projected towards the object. A certain amount of the X-rays or other radiation are absorbed by the object, dependent on the object ...

  5. X-ray optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_optics

    X-ray optics is the branch of optics dealing with X-rays, rather than visible light. It deals with focusing and other ways of manipulating the X-ray beams for research techniques such as X-ray diffraction , X-ray crystallography , X-ray fluorescence , small-angle X-ray scattering , X-ray microscopy , X-ray phase-contrast imaging , and X-ray ...

  6. Projectional radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectional_radiography

    Projectional radiography, also known as conventional radiography, [1] is a form of radiography and medical imaging that produces two-dimensional images by X-ray radiation. The image acquisition is generally performed by radiographers, and the images are often examined by radiologists. Both the procedure and any resultant images are often simply ...

  7. X-ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray

    Natural color X-ray photogram of a wine scene. Note the edges of hollow cylinders as compared to the solid candle. William Coolidge explains medical imaging and X-rays.. An X-ray (also known in many languages as Röntgen radiation) is a form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than those of ultraviolet rays and longer than those of gamma rays.

  8. Tomographic reconstruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomographic_reconstruction

    In X-ray CT, the line integral represents the total attenuation of the beam of X-rays as it travels in a straight line through the object. As mentioned above, the resulting image is a 2D (or 3D) model of the attenuation coefficient. That is, we wish to find the image (,).

  9. Coherent diffraction imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherent_diffraction_imaging

    This reciprocal space diffraction image was taken by Ian Robinson's Group to be used in the reconstruction of a real space coherent X-ray diffraction image in 2007. Coherent diffractive imaging ( CDI ) is a "lensless" technique for 2D or 3D reconstruction of the image of nanoscale structures such as nanotubes, [ 1 ] nanocrystals, [ 2 ] porous ...
