Towards synchrotron phase-contrast lung imaging in patients - a proof-of-concept study on porcine lungs in a human-scale chest phantom

In-line free propagation phase-contrast synchrotron tomography of the lungs has been shown to provide superior image quality compared with attenuation-based computed tomography (CT) in small-animal studies. The present study was performed to prove the applicability on a human-patient scale using a c...
