X-ray phase-contrast and attenuation tomography of mouse liver. (a) 3D rendering with phase-contrast tomography with an axial cut shown for phase (b) and attenuation (d) channels. (c) Line profile of the signal through indicated liver cross sections of (b) and (d) showing improved contrast to noise ratio in the phase contrast. (e) Fourier ring correlation curve calculated from the two independent reconstructions of (b) and (d) showing an increased resolution for phase contrast. The following anatomical features were identified with phase-contrast tomography: hepatic portal vein (hpv), hepatic vein (hv) and hepatic arteries (ha).
