Figure 1
Experimental set-up for quantitative single-exposure phase-contrast imaging using a random phase mask. Here X-rays from a source pass through a piece of sandpaper to produce a `reference' speckle pattern. The yellow dotted line represents an X-ray reaching the detector in the absence of any sample. A sphere is introduced downstream of the sandpaper and results in a change in the direction of propagation of the X-ray wavefront, shifting the pattern downstream, as represented by the yellow arrow. The transverse shift is represented here by Sx. The shift is also resolved into the y component Sy. |
