Microstructure of a sample of recycled paper. Top left: standard tomographic reconstruction dominated by X-ray inline phase contrast. It is difficult, if not impossible, to distinguish different materials. Top right: same slice reconstructed from phase-retrieved projections processed by ANKAphase. Besides the higher contrast between the sample and the background, different constituents inside the specimen can now be distinguished. Bottom: volume rendering of the segmented tomographic volume data reconstructed from the phase maps. Part of the cellulose constituent (blue–white) is cropped in order to visualize the additives (green). |
