Description
In the current contribution we analyze PXR-based phase contrast imaging in detail. It is shown that a PXR source can provide necessary spatial resolution, penetrating power, and sensitivity to soft tissue that is required to visualize biological and medical specimens on a scale from millimeters to microns. It should be also mentioned that because higher quality images require greater x-ray fluxes, there exists an inherent balance between image quality and bio-tissue damage.
